Climate risk in a globalized world: empirical findings from supply chains in the Swedish manufacturing sector

The analysis of 14 large Swedish export-oriented businesses reveals that climate change is not viewed as a priority risk, with a lack of operational risk management strategies and a failure to link global climate change to specific supply chain operational risks.

• Large export-oriented Swedish businesses generally do not prioritize climate change as a risk and lack operational-level risk management strategies to address it.
• Companies struggle to establish a direct link between the global nature of climate change and the specific operational risks affecting their supply chains.
• The complexity of supply chain structures creates significant resource barriers to performing comprehensive risk assessments and management.
