Takeaways

• Novata launches Risk Atlas, an AI tool for unified risk visibility across portfolios and supply chains.
• The platform strengthens portfolio risk management and supply chain risk oversight using standardized, AI-driven insights.
• It enables continuous risk monitoring systems, helping investors and corporates act on emerging exposures in real time.

Novata has introduced Risk Atlas, an AI-powered solution designed to enhance AI risk monitoring across investment portfolios and global supply chains.

The platform is built to address a persistent challenge in modern portfolio risk management: Fragmented and inconsistent risk data spread across systems, business units, and external sources. This fragmentation often limits visibility into where risks are accumulating and how they compare across entities.

AI Risk Monitoring for Portfolio Risk Management

Risk Atlas aims to centralize and normalize risk intelligence so investors and risk teams can evaluate exposure using a consistent framework. By applying AI risk monitoring, the platform helps users compare companies, sectors, and suppliers more effectively within a single portfolio view.

As risk exposure becomes more dynamic, traditional reporting cycles are no longer sufficient. Investors now require faster and more structured insights to support decision-making in volatile markets.

Supply Chain Risk Oversight and ESG Risk Analytics

A major focus of the platform is supply chain risk oversight, where disruptions linked to climate events, geopolitics, and cyber threats have become increasingly common.

Risk Atlas integrates ESG risk analytics across five categories: Reputational, cyber, geopolitical, physical climate, and transition risk. This structured approach allows organizations to better understand both financial and non-financial exposures across operations and suppliers.

“Risk is often fragmented across teams and systems, which makes it difficult to see the full picture,” said Meredith Binder, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at Novata. “Risk Atlas helps bring consistency to how that information is understood and used, so organizations can prioritize attention and strengthen oversight across their portfolios and supply chains.”

Enterprise Risk Intelligence Across Five Risk Categories

The platform strengthens enterprise risk intelligence by continuously surfacing and updating risk signals through AI-enabled data providers.

Each risk category plays a distinct role in exposure assessment. Physical climate risks can impact asset performance and insurance costs, while transition risks reflect regulatory shifts and market changes. Cyber and geopolitical risks add further complexity for globally connected supply chains.

By standardizing these inputs, Risk Atlas allows organizations to identify concentration points and prioritize action based on material exposure.

Continuous Risk Monitoring Systems for Investors and Corporates

A key innovation in Risk Atlas is its shift toward continuous risk monitoring systems. Instead of relying on periodic assessments, users can track changes in real time, flag high-risk exposures, and adjust strategies dynamically.

This also positions the platform as part of a broader category of investment risk platforms, supporting the full lifecycle from pre-investment screening to ongoing portfolio oversight.

Christina Anslem, Advisory Manager at Novata, noted that the goal is to move beyond fragmented signals. “By standardizing risk across portfolios and supply chains, the platform helps teams identify where exposure is most critical, scale monitoring more efficiently, and focus resources where action is needed most,” she said.

The launch reflects a broader industry shift toward active intelligence rather than static reporting, as investors and corporations seek tools that transform risk data into actionable insight.
