The May 2026 Global Investment Risk and Resilience Index (GIRRI) Special Edition shows how country rankings have shifted following recent geopolitical shocks by overlaying long-term structural resilience with real-time market risk signals using Country Risk Premium (CRP) data as at 1 April 2026. The rankings reflect a composite measure of both risk and resilience, with higher-ranked countries generally exhibiting lower risk and greater resilience. Movements reflect relative positioning between countries rather than absolute changes in risk or resilience. See methodology note for further details.
The chart shows the countries that have moved up most in the rankings, reflecting relative resilience as risk has increased more rapidly elsewhere.
