What EY-Parthenon teams can do for you

The Geostrategic Business Group (GBG) helps you translate geopolitical insights into business strategy.

The Geopolitical Business Group works with other EY teams to assess the potential impact of geopolitical risk on investments, supply chains, data and other areas of a business. With the breadth of our strategic and operational knowledge, the teams develop actionable plans to help you better identify, assess, help manage and strategize around the political risks you face.

We also help you design and implement a geostrategy at your organization, putting in place the governance and processes that adapt business strategy and broader risk management practices to overcome challenges and seize opportunities associated with an increasingly dynamic geopolitical environment.

To thrive in today’s era of geopolitical volatility, all organizations need a geostrategy — the cross-functional integration of political risk management into broader risk management, strategy and governance.
