As political violence grows more diverse and unpredictable in 2025, companies face new challenges to safeguard employees, assets, and operations. Threats against public officials, targeted corporate attacks, and societal acceptance of violence to influence power will heighten risk across the globe. Control Risks experts identify key drivers of this trend, including intensifying geopolitical rivalries, increased political polarisation, viral online radicalisation, and disruptive new technologies. Understanding these factors will be essential for businesses navigating an increasingly volatile landscape.
