Risk Management : Criminal & Terrorist Business Impacts

As the Good Friday Peace Agreement is implemented across Northern Ireland, government security forces have undergone strength reductions, changes in operating procedures and dismantling of facilities. Against this backdrop, terrorist paramilitaries continue to thrive and operate extensive criminal networks threatening business. Multi-nationals considering on investing in Northern Ireland need to understand the threats posed. The commercial impacts of terrorist paramilitary actions are rarely fully understood outside of Northern Ireland. This presentation will confront and define the spectre of terrorist attempts to impact the balance sheet of large business and guide on how to thwart and minimize business loss and disruption.
