Industry Risks And Concerns


BHEL’s multi-sector exposure poses a risk to the business, but it also functions as an effective hedge. Most companies in the manufacturing industry are prone to the following risks:
  • Cybercrime: The more applications and internet of things (IoT) endpoints in a system, the greater is your risk of being exploited. Data breaches and cybersecurity risks affect most businesses.
  • Third-Party Failure: A vendor who misconducts or poorly manages the image of the manufacturer is a regulatory risk to the company.
  • Environmental Impact: The type of impact industry activities have on the environment can be a cause of lawsuits and fines. Manufacturing industries need to be observant about their total environmental impact. Compliance to regulations is necessary.
  • Raw Material Prices: Global Market volatility causing fluctuations in prices of raw materials and energy can pose a threat to the manufacturing industry. It destabilises the supply chain and the market overall.
