Retail

Retailers have always had to evolve to survive. The sector faces major structural change over the next ten years, including disruptive technology, online migration and new consumer demands for experience-led retailing. Future survival and success may depend on retailers embracing these changes and managing the strategic and operational risks they create throughout the value chain.

Using our retail industry knowledge and insight, we will help you manage and mitigate risk and control cost within your business.

Your WTW client relationship director and WTW risk partner look at your operational structure, your people and the values and ethics that make your company what it is today and what it endeavours to be in the future. We then review risks that could impact your business as well as areas for improvements in business resilience and recovery, risk retention and transfer, servicing efficiencies and cost reductions.

We use informed analysis to help make the complex nature of the risks you face simpler. Through our connected risk management offering, we then provide a holistic solution aligned directly to your key business drivers including: branding, marketing and communications, staff behaviours, product range, supply chain and the site (physical or online).
