We cover three regions, and read every market in them in its own language and from its own sources.

Middle East and North Africa

The closest geographically and culturally, and the fastest to change politically and economically. We know its day-to-day detail from the inside.

Risks we track there

  • Local relationship networks

Example markets

  • Egypt
  • Morocco

Africa

Fast-growing markets in energy, mining, agriculture and infrastructure, where conditions vary sharply between countries, and sometimes between regions of the same country.

Risks we track there

  • Currency conversion and profit repatriation
  • Governance and conflicts of interest
  • Security around project sites

Example markets

  • Ethiopia
  • Nigeria
  • Tanzania
  • Ghana
  • South Africa

South and East Asia

Large, diverse economies with openings in manufacturing, technology and food, and rules that are complex and can differ from one state or province to the next.

  • Intellectual property protection
  • Shifting trade policy

Example markets

  • India
