The Country Report prepared by Political Capital Institute and the economic weekly Figyelő contains political and economic risk indices determined according to a stringent methodology. The political index is published annually, while the economic index is determined and announced quarterly.
The Political Risk Index (PRI) and the Economic Risk Index (EcoRisk) indicates a country’s annual political and social stability level on a scale of 100 points.
The PRI, published once a year, is a reliable summary of the main social and political factors determining the stability of the examined country. The political risk index, which provides a comprehensive overview of the country, offers useful information especially to foreign investors and non-governmental organisations. The index is determined on the basis of thorough examination of several areas, and it is accompanied by a detailed analysis, a summary of which is available at the homepage www.orszagjelentes.hu.
Political Capital has worked out a special methodology for the determination of the index; this methodology can be used in any country. Our team of experts has defined seven sub-indices within the overall political risk index.
The economic risk index determined by Figyelő (EcoRisk) comprises four sub-indices: state of the economy, finances, balance, and labour markets. These sub-indices define the main risk dimensions that determine the development of Hungary’s economy. The EcoRisk index is announced quarterly by Figyelő.
