Top Risks

Top Risks is Eurasia Group’s biggest project of the year. Tens of thousands read the report, and millions more see its charts and graphics on TV and online. Every January, we launch it as the year kicks off. Research and writing start in the fall, but design only gets the green light about four weeks before publication. That window keeps shrinking because the world doesn’t slow down—major global events are happening more often, constantly shifting the main themes and changing the story right up to the finish line. I lead the creative direction and manage the entire design process—coordinating charts, layouts, photo collages, marketing campaigns, and event graphics. I keep the brand and vision consistent across every asset, consult on all major visuals, and design many of them myself.
