Risk assessments are conducted regularly as part of Wall to Wall Group’s daily operations. In addition, a comprehensive and structured analysis of the Group’s overall risk exposure is carried out annually. This analysis evaluates each business area based on a range of external and operational factors. External factors include macroeconomic conditions, environmental impact, and political decisions.

Operational factors include financial risks, IT infrastructure and governance, customer and supplier dynamics, competitor developments, sustainability positioning, and the emergence of alternative technologies that may pose future risks. Climate-related risks are identified and assessed as an integrated part of the Group’s overall risk management framework.

The environmental and climate perspective takes into account both acute and long-term risks and includes environmental, political, regulatory, technological, market and reputational risks. Each identified risk is managed by the respective company based on guidelines from the Wall to Wall Group.

Overall, the Board of Directors is of the opinion that the Group maintains a well-balanced risk profile, consistent with the company’s overall strategic direction.
