Unique offering that advances traditional thinking

Comprehensive appraisal of political risks that distinguishes between dynamic risks and structural risks

Analysis for both:

  • Traditional risk areas including conflict, terrorism, the rule of law as well as the regulatory and business environment
  • Emerging risk areas affecting political stability such as food security, water security, energy security, climate change, poverty
  • Integrates innovative methodology drawing on GIS data-sets and geographical coding of locations of incidents
  • Addresses the interdependence and conflation of political risk clusters using rigorous statistics, indices and expert analysis

Political risk indices identify and assess risk for all geographies to generate an outlook for 2009

Thirty-nine indices are presented in eight risk clusters, facilitating informed strategic planning and decision-making throughout the life of your investment or in-country presence

Indices can be:

  • Aggregated in different combinations to reflect your priorities for different decision-making functions, strategic planning, supply chain management or on-the-ground operations
  • Used individually, providing the granularity and analysis required for issue-specific assessments and monitoring

Indices are complemented by sub-national mapping capabilities that enable accurate quantification and visualisation of different risk exposures at the local level for factories, offices, farms or other key assets

Scorecards also incorporate recent stakeholder views - from third party commentary - to flag potential reputational risks, areas for engagement and opportunities for leadership
