This is great. Somebody just made up a bunch of numbers. Now others can use these made-up numbers as reference and extrapolate further.
In no way it is believable that "failure of IT" can cost almost 10% of GDP. There is also no clear definition of "failure" and why suddenly "projects at risk" become failures? This way one could count all people going across the street as killed by cars since all these people are at risk when crossing the street.
This estimation is just a 6.2 trillion nonsense.
