Water poses significant risks to global corporations in three areas: Direct operational and supply chain risks, market and reputational risks, and regulatory risks. The 2030 Water Resources Group (WRG), a partnership platform managed by the World Bank, believes it is in companies' business interests to invest in mitigating water risks in their operations and beyond their factory gates, playing an essential role in creating a more water-secure world. More than 300 companies are engaged in the global and country work of WRG, an initiative that facilitates collaboration between governments and businesses.
