A sample of Colombian and Brazilian companies was analyzed using 24 scenarios based on 8 risk types: contamination risk, exchange rate risk, trade risks, logistics and operations risks, risk of policy and regulation changes, credit risk, supplier-related risks, buyer-related risks and employee-related risks. Results show significant differences between countries as well as a highly distinction between 2020 and 2021 perceptions of threat, impact, loss, and likelihood.
