The events of recent years have taught us that risk is not confined to areas of existing conflict. With terrorist attacks, natural disasters and, more recently, the COVID-19 pandemic, companies have become increasingly aware of the growing risks their traveling personnel face.
In a way, the pandemic has helped open the eyes of many enterprises and travelers to the broader implications of travel and risk in general. For organizations, the understandable necessity for greater levels of due diligence before a trip is driving the need for greater levels of information and intelligence — and, likewise, for tools to enable travel risk management programs to be more scalable.
