Access always-on, actionable country risk intelligence to guide your business strategy.

As a risk manager or business executive, you often need to make important decisions, especially when it comes to investments outside of your home country. The World Risk Review provides you with credible insights to key business questions like:  

  • How hazardous is the security environment?
  • How risky is the country to do business in?
  • How challenging is it to invest in the country?

With exposures to ever-changing geopolitical risks, businesses with multinational operations, trade, and investments must monitor political, security, and economic perils and ensure their observations are timely and accurate. Without a tool to provide an always-on overview and actionable analysis of country risks, business leaders and risk managers can find it highly challenging to track and assess their risk exposures reliably and make informed decisions.

Marsh Specialty’s World Risk Review platform enables you to:

  • Understand country specific risk ratings across nine perils*.
  • Assess historical risk trends and benchmark the risk environment across multiple countries.
  • Extract the data and graphics generated by the online platform to create succinct and customised reports.

*Including strikes, riots and civil commotion; terrorism; war and civil war; country economic risk; currency inconvertibility and transfer risk; sovereign credit risk; expropriation; contractual agreement repudiation; legal and regulatory risk.

Monthly updated ratings and qualitative country risk analysis at your fingertips
