Established in 2004, the Global Risk Network tracks the global risk that is reported in the Global Risk Report that the World Economic Forum comes up with to be discussed ahead of their annual meeting in Switzerland.
The top global risks that were reported for the year 2012 talks about the Saudi polar uprising, the South China Sea conflict, the European disintegration and many others.
All of this is done so as to find out how the changes in the sectors of economics, geopolitics, environment, society as well as technology might effect the world economy in the long run and what measure should be taken to control or resolve them.
