Key factors
What drives the score
- Landlocked (transit dependence): yes (2026), risk percentile 100.source
- Current account balance: -22.6 % of GDP (2024), risk percentile 100.source
- New conflict displacements per 1,000 people: 22.61 (2025), risk percentile 89.source
- Control of corruption (WGI): 25.8 (2025), risk percentile 87.source
Each factor comes from a sourced, dated input; the percentile says where the country sits among those covered.
How it is calculated

5 of 5 sub-indices available · ige-v1
Provenance hash
SHA-256 of the canonical JSON of the inputs, their sources and periods, the winsorisation bounds and the weights. Same inputs, same hash.
