Water is both a finite and precious resource and yet is often taken for granted. In fact, within the next two decades, demand for fresh water will surpass supply by 40 percent. For many consumer goods companies, growing and operating their business amidst this backdrop can be challenging. Jill Wyant, executive vice president and president of Global Food and Beverage, introduced the Water Risk Monetizer as a resource to help address these challenges and provided guidance on shaping water strategies that are economically beneficial, environmentally sustainable and socially equitable.

that make

20. Actionable quantification of water-
related risks in financial terms
Informs efforts to assess and
manage water risk
From Operations at Risk to Risk Mitigation
The Solution
Water required > water share
= potential revenue at risk
Market price +
water risk premium
= risk-adjusted water price
The Challenge
Water price does not
reflect its full value
Water scarcity makes it
harder to access water
necessary to operate
