Geostrategic Business Group

What EY can do for you

The EY Geostrategic Business Group (GBG) helps organizations incorporate the risks and opportunities of the shifting global landscape into their business strategy.

Geopolitics affects every global organization, from strategy to supply chain. Yet many companies struggle to assess and manage the ever-changing disruption and direct impact on their business.

By harnessing our global footprint and local knowledge, we help organizations translate geopolitics into business strategy.

EY member firms collaborate with third-party firms, such as Teneo’s Political Risk Advisory service, to bring an added independent political risk perspective. Together with the breadth of our strategic and operational expertise, our teams translate geopolitical trends into actionable plans that guide you through new ways of monitoring and mitigating risk.

To thrive in today’s changing world, we believe businesses need a geostrategy. To get there, we help companies:

• Look at how they are organized from the boardroom through to operations in dealing with geopolitical disruption
  
  
• Set up processes to identify and understand geopolitical risk and opportunity
  
  
• Assess the direct impact of geopolitics on a firm’s customers, employees, investors and other stakeholders
  
  
• Explore the impact of geopolitics on sales, corporate responsibility, corporate finance, R&D and other corporate functions
  
  
• Understand how a company trains, hires and utilizes people or external firms with geopolitical expertise
  
  
• Guide companies on how to embed a geopolitical perspective across its operations
