the risks they face and point them in the right direction for

Kroll and The Economist Intelligence Unit have put together an
industry-by-industry report on the risks faced, the losses incurred and
steps to take.

Their
report includes global and local issues, sector by sector
analysis,Economist Intelligence Unit overview, prevention, detection
& response. A total of 892 senior executives from ten industries
took part in this survey; a third based in Europe, 32% in Asia-Pacific
and 30% in
North and South America.  The highest number of

respondents came from the financial services industry (18%).
