Reimagining Corporate Business Continuity in the Middle East Conflict
As publisher, I am very pleased to share with our Continuity eGUIDE readers an insightful and timely perspective from Maitreya Buddha Samantaray, Vice President of Strategic Risk Consulting at Marsh Risk. Maitreya is based in Gurgaon, Haryana, India and offers a unique, international viewpoint.
In this compelling article, Maitreya examines how the conflict involving Iran and the disruption of critical global trade and energy routes are reshaping the future of business continuity planning worldwide.
Drawing upon more than 18 years of experience in geopolitical risk, crisis management, and operational resilience, he explores why traditional continuity strategies are no longer sufficient in an era of systemic disruption, cyber threats, supply chain instability, and prolonged geopolitical uncertainty.
His analysis offers practical insight into how organizations can strengthen resilience, protect operations, and adapt leadership structures during periods of sustained instability.
