Risk Radar

A new way of navigating the Future Risks Report Data

The 2026 edition includes a new digital module that allows you to filter raw data to tailor the top 10 risks view in multiple ways:

  • Historical view: Over the last 5 years, view the top 10 risks by respondent group (experts or general population) and by geographic area (country or continent). Choose a respondent group, a geographic area, and a time period. This enables you to track the evolution of the top 10 over time. Click a risk to highlight it.
  • 2026 Geographic Comparison: For 2026, compare the top 10 risks across two geographic areas within either the experts or the general population. Choose a respondent group (experts or general population) and two geographic areas. This allows you to compare the 2026 top 10 risks across countries and continents. Click a risk to highlight it.
