Risk assessment

When a company or organisation is about to embark on a major project, it’s important to understand the risks that might affect the launch.
Whether it’s a new product, a major construction project or a new strategy, you should always be aware of the factors that could be a threat to your project.

Often it is legislation, or administrative and political winds that can pose risks. We help you understand the potential opposition you might encounter and help you manage all the factors to reduce the risk.

Politics is opportunities and limitations

How Politics Can Impact Your Business – and How We Help You Navigate It
The political system has the power to significantly influence how businesses and organizations operate in the market. Legislation, new policy proposals, local development plans, government reports, and shifting political priorities can all have a major impact on the success of your new initiatives.

We support you with a 360-degree risk assessment when you’re preparing new projects or strategic moves in your business or organization. This risk assessment identifies potential political and regulatory risks and outlines how you can best neutralize their impact on your operations.

Our risk assessment process is structured into three clear phases:

1. Identification

We begin by building a comprehensive overview of the situation, identifying all relevant political factors that could pose a risk. This includes existing legislation, upcoming bills, and political trends both at the national level (e.g., the Danish Parliament and EU) and in local or regional contexts. We also assess local development plans, public sentiment, and activity from civic groups or associations that may influence your operating environment.

2. Assessment

Once the initial mapping is complete, we evaluate how each identified risk could affect your organization. We rate each item on a scale from 1 to 10, providing a clear and structured overview. This helps prioritize which risks require active management.

3. Management

With all risks identified and assessed, we develop a plan to manage the highest-rated risks. This may involve political engagement, strategic communication with civil servants or local authorities, and shaping the narrative through media and public outreach. Where needed, we also initiate tailored press efforts and political campaigns to help create favorable conditions for your business or organization.
Let us help you stay ahead of political developments – so you can focus on delivering results.
