Abstract

According to one embodiment, a system includes a memory, a processor, and an interface. For a first region, the processor calculates a risk associated with a political situation of the first region, a risk associated with a legal situation of the first region, a risk associated with an economic situation of the first region, a risk associated with a social situation of the first region, a risk associated with a technological situation of the first region, and a risk associated with an environmental situation of the first region. For a first entity, the processor calculates a risk associated with an exposure level of the first entity in the first region. Based at least on these calculated risks, the processor calculates a ranking for the first region, the ranking representing an amount of risk to the first entity in the first region. The interface communicates the ranking for display.
