ESG is the new standard
We at CountryRisk.io have been busy over the last year incorporating the excellent feedback from our users into the platform. Our most significant milestone has been the successful union of our standard and ESG sovereign risk frameworks into a single model. And this doesn’t just mean that we’ve done away with separate logins for each platform. Now, ESG sovereign risk is our standard rating framework.
Improved
Aside from combining the two frameworks, we’ve added some new indicators to our models and removed some old ones. You can find a complete list of these changes in the latest version of our methodology. We also gave our platform a lick of paint here and there to make sure your user interface stays the best in the industry.
Updated
We updated all our CountryRisk.io risk scores: Sovereign credit risk, ESG risk, AML country risk and also updated the SDG Index with the latest data.
