The EIU's report explores current approaches to long-term strategic planning and risk management. Links between risk management and strategy are strengthening in many organisations, but while many companies are using scenario planning, few are embedding it into the overall strategy process.

Key findings include:

• Long-term risk management is rising on the agenda for many business leaders. 
• Links between risk management and strategy are strengthening in many organisations. 
• Many companies are using scenario planning, but few embed it into the overall strategy process.
• The time horizons for strategy and risk are often misaligned. 
• A short-term focus among business leaders can prevent a more thorough assessment of long-term risks. 
• Risk functions need to do more to challenge entrenched views of the future.
