Methodology – Country risk

To obtain the overall country risk score, Euromoney assigns a weighting to the nine categories listed below. The best underlying value per category achieves the full weighting (25, 10 or 5); the worst scores zero and all other values are calculated relative to these two. The formula used is the following: A - (A / (B-C)) x (D-C), where A = category weighting; B = lowest value* in range; C = highest value* in range, D = individual value.
