According to the WEF's annual global risk survey, conflict, including wars and terrorism, was cited by nearly a quarter of experts as the top immediate risk.
Mirek Dusek of WEF indicated that the responses reflect a prevailing sense of uncertainty because we live in a very complex geopolitical environment with a record number of conflicts.
Borge Brende, WEF President, highlighted that the humanitarian situation in Gaza and potential escalation of Middle Eastern conflicts will dominate discussions at Davos.
While armed conflict is perceived as the immediate threat, last year’s survey showed that climate change remains a significant long-term concern for global economic stability.
