Protiviti’s 13th annual Executive Perspectives on Top Risks Survey focused on the global aerospace and defense (A&D) industry group for the first time. The findings indicate that this industry is in a period of profound transformation driven by mounting geopolitical tensions, technological change and disruption, shifting economic priorities, and evolving workforce dynamics. For many businesses in the sector, the need is urgent to rethink their traditional processes and modernize their operations so they can move faster and with more agility than ever before.

In this report, we reveal the top risks A&D executives should consider moving forward, based on the results of the survey.
