Risk Management in Digital Transformation

Digital transformation introduces a range of risks, from cybersecurity threats and regulatory breaches to financial instability and supplier insolvency. In this episode, Sarah Kenshall, Matt Clarke (Cyber Director, Partners&), and Phillip D’Costa outline the key corporate, technological, and contractual risks businesses must address.

They discuss the importance of governance frameworks, cyber resilience, and regulatory compliance, as well as the need for clear operational resilience clauses in vendor agreements. Insurance considerations are also explored, including how businesses can ensure cyber insurance covers digital transformation-related risks and why a well-structured contractual risk framework is essential to avoid costly legal disputes and project failures.
