INTERNATIONAL security and risk-mitigation provider AKE has launched the next generation of its secure online country information website, Global Intake.
The site is used by many of the firm’s clients from a range of industries, including the international media and energy industries, the insurance and finance sectors, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and governments.
Subscribers to the website use it for a variety of different purposes, such as pre-deployment planning and country familiarisation for duty-of-care purposes; risk management; emergency planning, and crisis-response management.
One of the main areas to be reworked, the result of client consultation and feedback, is the Global Intake Risk Rating System. This is an analytical tool which allows risk to be quantified and categorised.
Through the rating system, Global Intake tracks worldwide security and political risks, which can be monitored on the Risk Rating page of the website or on individual country entries. The system helps to assess emerging risks and key trends, including the brunt of the financial crisis, and allows for a forecast of political and security developments for more than 170 countries.
