The risk advisory services market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $88.71 billion in 2025 to $99.01 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising regulatory compliance requirements, increasing awareness of enterprise risk management, growing financial market uncertainties, expanding globalization of business operations, and rising demand for operational efficiency.

The risk advisory services market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $151.31 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of predictive risk assessment models, rising complexity of regulatory environments, growing focus on third-party risk management, increasing demand for strategic risk consulting services, and rising emphasis on organizational resilience planning. Major trends in the forecast period include growing adoption of integrated enterprise risk management frameworks, increasing demand for proactive risk identification and mitigation strategies, rising focus on regulatory governance and compliance management, increasing preference for data-driven risk assessment methodologies, and growing need for business resilience and crisis preparedness solutions.

The increasing incidence of cybersecurity threats and data breaches is expected to propel the growth of the risk advisory services market in the forecast period. Cybersecurity threats refer to malicious activities aimed at gaining unauthorized access to, damaging, or disrupting digital systems, networks, and data, while data breaches involve the unauthorized exposure, access, or theft of confidential and sensitive information. The rise in cybersecurity threats and data breaches is primarily attributed to rapid digital transformation, which has expanded potential attack surfaces through the widespread adoption of cloud computing systems, digital platforms, and interconnected networks. Risk advisory services support organizations in addressing cybersecurity threats and data breaches by identifying and evaluating risk exposure, enhancing cybersecurity controls and governance frameworks, maintaining regulatory compliance, and enabling proactive monitoring and incident response strategies to minimize cyberattack risks and operational impacts. For instance, in April 2025, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), a US-based government agency, cybercrime complaints increased to 859,532 in 2024, with reported losses exceeding $16.6 billion, representing a 33% increase in losses compared with 2023. Therefore, the increasing incidence of cybersecurity threats and data breaches is driving the growth of the risk advisory services market.

Companies operating in the risk advisory services market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as digital infrastructure risk consulting, to enhance enterprise resilience, operational risk management, and exposure mitigation across complex infrastructure environments. Digital infrastructure risk consulting refers to specialized advisory services that assess, identify, and mitigate risks across digital assets such as data centers, cloud systems, and network infrastructure, helping organizations improve operational resilience, minimize downtime, strengthen cybersecurity and physical risk preparedness, and ensure the continuity of critical digital services during disruptions.

It provides end-to-end advisory services from early project planning through construction and ongoing operations, helping organizations enhance risk visibility, minimize exposure, and strengthen long-term infrastructure resilience. This development demonstrates the increasing importance of integrated, data-driven risk advisory services in managing rapidly expanding digital infrastructure ecosystems.
