Pascal Matthey, Marine Risk Consulting Manager at AXA XL

Why is participating to the European Risk Management Seminar important to you?

Besides the amazing networking opportunities, it is a chance to exchange ideas on risk management topics and be aware of what keeps risk managers awake at night. It’s also an excellent opportunity to discuss possible solutions to help them address their concerns.

Why is the theme “Corporate Risk & Finance: how to finance the ever growing universe of risk?” relevant in today’s fast-paced world?

Globalization, technical advances and innovation bring with them new risks that can have a major impact on how businesses operate and for which alternative and mixed financing models are essential.

You will be presenting ”Supply Chain Exposure: how has Covid-19 pandemic changed the global picture?”, what would you like the audience to remember after your session?

Disruptions in the supply chain are among the top identified risks for companies operating globally today. They are influenced by a large variety of risk drivers that can have a potentially devastating impact on a company’s balance sheet. The session will hopefully increase awareness for this and deliver some thoughts and suggestions on how to get better prepared.

How will the role and responsibilities of the European risk managers evolve in order to achieve the green and digital transition?

Fostering creative and out-of-the-box thinking combined with the realization that we are moving in an uncertain environment will better prepare risk managers for the new risks they’re facing. Risk management is a journey to a known destination on unknown roads.
