Many U.S. companies are not prepared to face several key business risks, even as compliance teams are aware of them, according to AlixPartners’ 2026 U.S. Risk Survey (Survey). The Survey found that the absence of prescriptive federal rules on AI is exacerbating risks, and that financial crime and corporate disputes are on the rise, but companies are not mitigating their exposure effectively. Lisa Osofsky, a partner with the firm who was among the Survey’s authors, spoke to the Anti-Corruption Report about the Survey results and what lessons companies should take away from the findings. This article distills insights from the Survey along with her comments. See “Cybersecurity and AI Are Top Global Business Challenges Identified in Kroll Study” (Jul. 16, 2025).
