Navigating uncertainty and creating a resilient tomorrow

THE outbreak of Covid-19 has impacted businesses and left them worried, perhaps much more than some of the big challenges CEOs have been battling so far, such as the mega US-China trade war, tapering economic growth, speed of technological change and skills shortage.

Today, supply chains are being disrupted with some factories closed in various parts of China. Companies are activating business continuity plans with sights firmly trained on workforce safety and well-being as employers and employees try to work remotely and separately.

The talent shortage is exacerbated by enhanced travel barriers from affected geographies. Tightening cash flows and dwindling top and bottom lines are spooking investors. Many are scurrying for cover with legal implications arising out of contracts thrown open because of supply chain disruptions led by Covid-19.
