Key factors
What drives the score
- Landlocked (transit dependence): yes (2026), risk percentile 100.source
- Control of corruption (WGI): 22.8 (2025), risk percentile 92.source
- Exposure to sanctioned partners: 44.7 (2023), risk percentile 86.source
- Logistics performance (LPI): 2.5 (2022), risk percentile 79.source
Each factor comes from a sourced, dated input; the percentile says where the country sits among those covered.
How it is calculated
Weights, coverage and provenance
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.
