Country risks maps and reports
In today’s economic and geopolitical environment it is crucial to have a comprehensive overview of exposure to economic, political, commercial and financing risks in order to define risk management strategies.
Risk ratings change from year to year or quarter to quarter influenced by the situation of emerging markets, political instability and conflicts, sanitary crisis, energy prices, currency fluctuations and many other factors.
From PANGEA we recommend you to take standard commercial caution on your business dealings with customers and agents, including your network partners. There should be no need to say that you must consider geographical and political risk factors in your business dealings and credit extension policies.
To keep you aware of the changes in risk worldwide we have included in the Members Area a Country risk map, showing the risk classification of each country and including a full report link per country. The map is regularly updated by Euler Hermes, they analyze 241 countries and more than 100 economic indicators.
Additionally, you can contact us if you need any references or information about the trajectory of any of your network partners, we will be happy to assist you.
