Interconnected Risk Business Continuity Management

An advanced BCM framework that analyzes the compound impact of multiple, simultaneous crises. Unlike traditional BCM focusing on single incidents, it addresses systemic risks, such as a supply chain disruption caused by geopolitical events coinciding with a major cyberattack, to build deeper organizational resilience.

In Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), it uses scenario analysis and stress testing to map risk contagion paths. For instance, financial firms use it to comply with DORA by assessing systemic risks from third-party ICT provider failures. This shifts focus from reactive recovery to proactive prevention by reinforcing the most vulnerable operational links.

Key challenges include cross-departmental data silos, a lack of analytical tools for complex scenarios, and limited resources in SMEs. Solutions involve establishing a top-down risk culture, adopting digital risk management platforms, and engaging external experts to conduct phased implementation, prioritizing high-impact interconnected risks to build resilience incrementally.
