Country risk assessment
A full picture of the political, regulatory, economic and security risk in the country you plan to invest in.
Before you commit capital, you need to know how the country makes decisions, who shapes them, and what could change over the life of your investment. We read the country from the inside, score each type of risk separately, and tie every finding to your project rather than to the country in general.
When you need it
- You are weighing a country you have not operated in before
- Your board wants an independent view before it approves
- Something significant has changed in a country where you are already invested
What we do
- We analyse political stability, centres of power and upcoming elections
- We review the rules that touch your sector: foreign ownership, profit repatriation, tax
- We gauge currency, inflation and public debt risk
- We assess security in the cities and regions where you will operate

Country A, renewable energy
| Dimension | Level | Direction | Driver |
|---|---|---|---|
| Political | Medium | Rising | General election within nine months |
| Regulatory | High | Steady | Draft rules on power tariffs |
| Economic | Medium | Easing | Financing deal eases currency pressure |
| Security | Low | Steady | Stable around project sites |
| Social | Low | Rising | Local objections over land use |
Bottom lineProceed, provided the offtake contract protects against tariff changes.
