What are the big risks that can damage my business? – Risk is just an expensive substitute for information Can they be turned into competitive advantages? – Your greatest growth opportunities are your greatest risks - reversed © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com Widespread impact of strategic risk Strategic risk is rising, and the market is unforgiving While extreme volatility of earnings, expectations, and stock price has been inherent in tech companies, these characteristics are now infecting even the bluest of blue chips – very powerful companies operating in relatively stable industries Worse, those characteristics are infecting even the very best and smartest companies, iconic “great managers” running “great business models” (Wal-Mart, Dell, etc.) In this higher-risk environment, companies need to improve their skill at strategic anticipation and increase the resilience of their business designs Some leading companies have successfully challenged conventional wisdom, growing their profitability and value alongside relatively low betas Specific strategic risk events have impacted a wide variety of companies and industries; while leaders have responded in less than a year, others have yet to respond © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com S&P: High-to-low quality ratio A-ranked stocks C-ranked stocks 35% 35% 31% 30% 30% 30% 25% 23% 20% 15% 15% 14% Percent of total Percent of total 25% 20% 20% 15% 10% 10% 5% 5% 0% 0% 1985 1990 © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com 1995 2004 18% 12% 1985 1990 1995 2004 Procter & Gamble took five years to recover from 2000 market value drop $160 $140 $120 $BB $100 $80 $60 $40 $20 $ 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2007 Note: Market capitalization drop calculated from 99Q4 to 00Q3 © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com Other blue chips have taken even longer to recover lost ground Deutsche Bank $80 $80 $60 $60 $BB $BB McDonalds $40 $40 $20 $20 $ 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 $ 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006 2006 Merck $100 $250 $80 $200 $60 $150 $BB $BB Siemens $40 $20 $ 1995 $100 $50 1997 1999 2001 2003 2005 2007 $ 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006 Note: Market capitalization drop calculated from 99Q4 to 00Q3 © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com Strategic risk management: Three modes I II III Anticipate/ ready before it happens React fast LAG months 80 months Most companies are neither in Column I (they don’t practice Strategic Risk Management), nor in Column II (they’re not organized to move fast) The vast majority are in Column III (many with dangerously long response times) © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com Response lags Event Player Response time GM/Toyota Hybrid GM 84 months and counting Wal-mart/Target Wal-Mart 72 months and counting Blockbuster/Netflix BB 58 months Barnes & Noble/ Amazon B&N 36 months Motorola/Nokia 00 Motorola 36 months WSJ.com, YFinance WSJ ~20 months © Oliver Wyman www.oliverwyman.com The Upside explores practical tactics to counter and find opportunity in risk Strategic risks, countermeasures, and growth Extreme risk Countermeasures Growth upside Technology shift Double betting Double bet to surprise the other guy Brand collapse Continuous measurement Reallocating brand investment Build the strongest brand in your business Unique competitor Early warning system Shift in business design Avoid the gorilla;
