Country Risk Benchmarking

Attempting to compare risk and opportunity across multiple markets without timely, objective insights leaves you exposed to bias and blind spots. This can lead to suboptimal decision-making that ultimately results in weaker returns.

Our country risk benchmarking replaces guesswork with structured, comparable analysis, helping you identify where opportunity truly outweighs risk and allowing you to make confident, evidence-based decisions that maximise your return on investment.

Case Study

Comparing Risk Across Competing Projects

A global oil major evaluating upstream opportunities was assessing potential new countries in Africa, Latin America, and Central Asia. The strategy team wanted to understand the opportunities and risks in these jurisdictions and how they compared to countries the company knew well.

Challenge

Country risk perceptions were influenced by personal bias, legacy assumptions, and fragmented inputs from across teams. Informal comparisons lacked consistency, resulting in an uneven view of the risk landscape.

Solution

Horizon Engage's Advance platform delivered structure and consistency to decision-making. Our standardized, side-by-side scores for seven key jurisdictions replaced informal assessments with a coherent analytical framework.

Impact

Executives deprioritized two high-risk countries despite strong geological interest, and highgraded one that matched its internal risk thresholds.
