What is the price of risk? - Ensuring Success in an Unpredictable Environment

The American Chamber of Commerce in Croatia together with the GrECo Group brought together industry leaders to explore the critical role of risk management and business resilience in today’s dynamic landscape.

The event featured opening remarks from Andrej Krvavica, General Manager – GrECo Croatia and Andrea Doko Jelušić, Executive Director – AmCham Croatia.

An insightful fireside chat followed, with Andreas Schmitt, Board Member for Risk & Insurance Technology – GrECo International AG and Svjetlana Momčilović, Sales Director – GrECo Croatia, sharing their expertise.

Finally, a dynamic panel discussion brought together top industry leaders – Martina Dalić (CEO, Podravka), Adrian Ježina (CEO, Telemach), Davor Tomašković (CEO, Croatia osiguranje), Vladislav Veselica (Board Member, JANAF), Boris Centner (Board Advisor, Erste Bank), and moderated by Iva Rogović Lekić (Executive Board Member, GrECo Croatia). Together, they explored the challenges organizations face today and the value of a risk-based advisory approach in driving smarter business decisions.

Key takeaways from the event could be summed up in three main interest fields, and during the panel discussion it was concluded that proactive risk management is what separates successful organizations from those merely reacting to challenges.

Also, the general sentiment is that insurance is more than financial protection - it is a strategic tool for long-term stability and growth, and collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and expert advisory services are essential for navigating uncertainty and securing business success.

The event attracted more than 130 representatives from the business community as well as media representatives.
