Security risk

The security risk rating evaluates the

likelihood of state or non-state actors

engaging in actions that harm the fi nancial,

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.

Piracy

Areas at heightened risk of piracy or other maritime

insecurity. The darkest areas indicate a greater

level of risk.

Political risk

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. Boundaries and names shown on this map do not imply endorsement or acceptance by Control Risks.
