The Global Stress Points Matrix™
A Unique Early Warning System and Methodology Designed to Monitor Future Risks
The Problem:
forecasting unlikely events
Unlikely but foreseeable events can have important financial, strategic and political impacts on your organisation – particularly if you’re not prepared for them! For instance, was your organisation caught unawares by the spike in oil prices during 2006?
The Solution
Oxford Analytica has developed an Early Warning system to meet exactly these needs, which is called the Global Stress Point Matrix (GSPM)™. This service is designed to help an organisation to limit the costs of unforeseen events and avoid being taken by surprise.
The core of GSPM is a unique methodology that allows its users to be kept informed about political and economic surprises and threats, which although they may appear unlikely, would have severe consequences should they occur. It is a disciplined approach for ‘stepping outside conventional wisdom’, using Oxford Analytica’s global network of experts to ‘ask the right questions’.
The standard GSPM service currently monitors the 20 events that Oxford Analytica’s experts consider to be potentially the most disruptive to a broad range of clients. It estimates the impact of these events on:
- global GDP
- business operations
- geopolitics
- and international financial markets.
In addition to our standard GSPM product, we also provide individually customised stress points for clients, where we apply the concept and methodology to a specific event or set of events of your choosing.
