Eunomix, advisors in resilience

The world is in dis-order. Risks and disruptions emerge, spread and shape-shift at accelerating speed. Current methods of anticipation and resolution have lost efficacy to greater complexity. Facing fast-rising uncertainty and instability, organisations are pressed solutions that protect value and integrity

Eunomix has responded to the call for resilience-building solutions with a new offering positioned at the point where external risks meet performance

Our new offering has been developed through innovation with blue-chip capital-intensive clients operating in higher-risk regions, and with governments of emergent nations.

We cover the full spectrum of external risks at local, country, regional and levels: security, politics, economics, society and environment. This multi-risk, multi-level lens brings fast risk identification in the global ecosystem we call GCR (global & country risk).

This offering is designed to fully fit into our clients' risk, strategy and operations systems. It is a world-first solution that delivers measurable and benchmarkable gains in resilience and performance through: 1) a proprietary industry-leading multi-risk, multi-level GCR data system; 2) a transdisciplinary team made of GCR and performance management specialists; and, 3) a custom-tailored GCR analysis and management process.

Our solution has facilitated large capital investment decisions, informed major strategy changes, anticipated value-impacting issues, decreased critical risks, solved serious crises, and improved operational performance. It has greatly enriched our work for governments on stability, resilience and sustainable socioeconomic development in higher risk regions.

Our projects strive to raise our clients’ social license, sustainability and economic impact.

Testimonials

Eunomix’s insightful analysis of the socio-economic and political landscape represented an invaluable contribution towards the evolution of our company’s business strategy. Their experts provided well-researched findings backed up by credible models and strong empirical evidence for clearly articulated scenarios. Our resilience to succeed in a volatile and uncertain future has been substantially enhanced through access to Eunomix’s strategic intelligence.
Neal Froneman, CEO, SibanyeStillwater

Claude and the Eunomix team have been supporting us with top quality research and analysis for many years. We've benefited enormously from Eunomix's technical expertise and strategic insights on issues of spatial development, trade and industrial policy, and political economy. And their deep experience across the African continent is a major asset.
Thomas Farole, Lead Economist, World Bank

Having worked with Eunomix and being exposed to their work, specifically, Claude Baissac, they have depth of talent in understanding, simplifying and advising on global politics, global socio economic matters and global risk on human progress. Their value add is immense for governments, business and social development organisations. South Africa continues to benefit from Eunomix’s approach.
Mike Teke, CEO, Sereti Coal, President of the South African Chamber of Mines 2015-2017

Eunomix made a presentation to our Board on scenarios for the future of South Africa and the implications of country risk for our company. Their rigorous and innovative use of economic and political data was excellent. We then hired Eunomix to support the development of a new strategy and strategy development process. Our objective was to do strategy differently: i) bring rigor in the analysis relevant internal and external factors and their impact; ii) integrate strategy, business planning and business development into one coherent process. Eunomix delivered above expectations.
Reginald Haman, Chief Risk Officer, Royal Bafokeng Platinum

In my time as Chief Risk Officer at Implats, Eunomix provided over a significant period of time a concise and relevant analysis of political and country risk. In addition, Eunomix were able to provide very useful inputs to strategic risk issues such as environmental and economic risk. Their insights were very well received by the Executive and the Board.
Paul Skivington, Chief Risk Officer, Implats, 2007-2016

Eunomix is a “strategic partner” to our exploration and mining projects, particularly in high risk geopolitics, infrastructure and security. Their understanding of and analysis is of the highest level. The value they have added to our projects is significant.
Anton Mauve, Managing Partner, Plinian Capital

We have worked with Eunomix on a range of socio-economic, geopolitical and risk mitigation assignments over a period of 7 years, on each occasion Eunomix has added strategic insight and quantifiable value to our shared clients. Eunomix, exemplified by its CEO Claude Baissac, maintains consistently high standards for its intellectual rigour, analysis and integrity – I would have no hesitation in recommending the firm and Claude in the highest possible terms.
Hugh Petre, K2 Intelligence

We believe that Eunomix should be a critical partner in all exploration and extractive ventures – the depth of experience and insights are invaluable to informed decision-making and understanding of the risks associated with exploration and extraction, and what is required to ensure long term sustainability.
Warren Beech, Partner and Head of Mining, Hogan Lovells SA

Working with Eunomix provided an objective and insightful approach to country risk understanding and developing a strategic response. As such, current political events are viewed within a longer term perspective.
