According to the Allianz Risk Barometer 2025, cyber incidents are now the №1 risk for businesses worldwide. Nearly 4,000 risk experts across 100 countries have identified ransomware, AI-driven cyberattacks, and regulatory compliance as the most pressing challenges ahead.
Allianz, one of the world’s largest insurance and risk management firms, publishes this annual report to highlight emerging threats and help businesses strengthen their resilience.
So, here they are — the Top 5 Business Risks for 2025:
1️⃣ Cyber Incidents – AI-driven attacks, ransomware, and data breaches are accelerating;
