SECURITY RISK FORECAST
INSIGNIFICANT

LOW

POLITICAL RISK FORECAST
MEDIUM

HIGH

EXTREME

The security risk rating evaluates the likelihood of state or non-state actors engaging in actions that harm the financial, physical and
human assets of a company. It assesses the extent to which the state is willing and able to protect those assets and the extent to which
state or non-state actors are capable of harming those assets. The impact of security risk on companies can include theft, injury,
kidnap, damage to installations, information theft, extortion, fraud, expropriation and loss of control over business. Security risk may
vary for companies and investment projects because of factors such as industry sector, investor nationality and geographic location.

LOW

MEDIUM

HIGH

EXTREME

The political risk rating evaluates the likelihood of state or non-state political actors negatively affecting business
operations in a country. It assesses the extent to which the state is willing and able to guarantee contracts and the
extent to which non-state actors may threaten the viability of business operations. The impact of political risk on
companies can include negative government policy, judicial insecurity, exposure to corruption, reputational damage,
expropriation and nationalisation, and international sanctions. It assesses the extent to which political, economic
and institutional stability may enhance or diminish the likelihood of these risks taking place. Political risk may vary
for companies and investment projects because of factors such as industry sector and investor nationality.
