Chamber member global risk consultancy AKE International has launched the AKE Community to make affordable and expert security, political and economic risk analysis accessible to all.
AKE Team Member Claire Fleming explains the thinking behind the development:
"This year marks the 20th anniversary of AKE’s intelligence team and of our country risk platform, Global Intake. This has encouraged a lot of discussion about everything our team has researched, covered and analysed in the last two decades – which is a lot!
From assessing new markets for energy companies, to briefing journalists deploying to conflict zones or reviewing the risks to an insurer’s exposures, we’ve done it all.
Our clients come from such diverse backgrounds both in terms of sector and the resources available to them. As a team, and as part of this anniversary year, we wanted to proactively make our analysis as accessible as possible. "
Tereza Palicka, who heads AKE’s Europe and Eurasia desk adds:
"Beyond the individuals, businesses and organisations with a responsibility to understand the risks to their teams and operations, people in general have an interest in geopolitical developments – perhaps never more so.
There is also so much coverage of global events from elections to terrorist attacks and there can be a lot of noise and bias. Our analytical team is made up of regional experts and we examine themes, trends and developments to make projections and deliver commentary designed to help informed decision making."
Membership of the AKE Community is just £50 per year or £8 per month and provides exclusive access to a wealth of regular geopolitical updates, analysis and commentary on the most salient security, political and economic risks globally. This includes weekly, monthly and quarterly reports, webinars and in-person events.
AKE Community members will also receive discounts on Hostile Environment Awareness Training (HEAT) courses, on bespoke analysis and on Global Intake, AKE’s country risk platform.
