Global Risks Report 2026
The Global Risks Report 2026, the 21st edition of this annual report, marks the second half of a turbulent decade. The report analyses global risks through three timeframes to support decision-makers in balancing current crises and longer-term priorities. Chapter 1 presents the findings of this year’s Global Risks Perception Survey (GRPS), which captures insights from over 1,300 experts worldwide. It explores risks in the current or immediate term (in 2026), the short-to-medium term (to 2028) and in the long term (to 2036). Chapter 2 explores the range of implications of these risks and their interconnections, through six in-depth analyses of selected themes. Below are the key findings of the report, in which we compare the risk outlooks across the three-time horizons.

Tech’s growth has a substantial nature footprint. Semiconductor manufacturing relies on over 1 trillion litres of freshwater annually, plus metals and critical minerals. Data centres draw 60+ GW of energy, enough to power California’s peak needs. Discarded hardware dumps 60 billion kg of e-waste annually, with less than a quarter recycled.
To ensure future success, tech companies must act swiftly to address their key impacts and dependencies on nature. This report, developed in collaboration with Oliver Wyman, recommends seven priority actions for tech leaders and demonstrates that nature-positive strategies can present financial opportunities – from recovered metals for new products to cost savings from reduced power and water consumption.
Last year’s annual report for CEO Climate Leaders addressed the steep cost of climate inaction. This year’s report reminds readers that the green economy is one of the biggest growth opportunities on the planet. Nonetheless, succeeding in the green economy is not always easy. Winning companies accelerate growth by rigorously pushing for technology maturity and bringing down costs of nascent technologies, shaping and navigating regulation, and accessing smart capital.
Drawing on the experiences of leaders who have successfully scaled up their green businesses and navigated common pitfalls, this report shares valuable inspiration and lessons for those companies seeking to act boldly and capture the value offered by a market projected to exceed $7 trillion in value by 2030.
