Country risk and the global economy
OVERALL RATINGS IN this September’s country risk survey reflect increased optimism among analysts polled by Euromoney, despite fears of a worldwide economic slowdown, and concerns related to sub-prime mortgages in the US. The average rating has increased to 50.29, an improvement of 2.41.
Commodity prices are expected to remain strong and continue to boost figures for many countries. For example, in Nigeria violence in the Niger delta is still a risk, but a positive move up the rankings is likely because of increases in oil production and prices.
