Most businesses in the Philippines are "well-prepared" for risks associated with natural disasters, a risk management expert said, reports GMA Network.

According to the article, Daniel Bould, Aon regional director in crisis management, said in a forum on Tuesday, "In the Philippine context most of the businesses are pretty well prepared. We're exposed in the Philippines to typhoon, we're exposed to earthquakes – we know that... Rather than let them (businesses) get stuck up on those risks, we take them as a learning opportunity."
