OECD Country Risk Categories – Classification of Country Risk 

The OECD assigns country risk categories ranging from 0 to 7. A country’s category provides an indication of the likelihood that a debtor in that country will be unable to meet its payment obligations for country-specific reasons.

 

The classification is regularly determined on the basis of various factors, such as political and economic stability, legal certainty and the track record of sovereign debt repayment.

./. = OECD high-income countries and the eurozone (not classified on a scale of 0–7)

 

0 = Negligible risk

1 = Low risk

...

7 = Significantly increased risk

 

Note: The country category serves as a reference point for determining the level of the cover fee. Whether cover is possible in principle depends on the current cover policy.
