Key factors

What drives the score

  • Logistics performance (LPI): 2.5 (2022), risk percentile 79.source
  • Government effectiveness (WGI): 35.2 (2025), risk percentile 79.source
  • Import concentration (HHI): 0.52 (2025), risk percentile 60.source
  • Political and security events (90 days): 63.5 (2026), risk percentile 58.source

Each factor comes from a sourced, dated input; the percentile says where the country sits among those covered.
