Changes in April 2012:
|
Argentina |
D&B has downgraded Argentina's country risk rating amid concerns over increased business risk. The seizure of a majority share in the country's biggest oil company is likely to seriously tarnish relationships with foreign investors and commercial partners. |
|
Iran |
D&B has downgraded Iran's risk rating in the light of increasing international sanctions. The rating remains within the Very High Risk category, but any future revision is likely to be down further, especially if military hostilities between Iran and Israel and/or the US break out. |
