Political and security risk review for global energy company
In Spring 2022, a global energy company requested a political and security risk review for a country they were considering investing in. The country in question was new to them, so they asked for a thorough report which would help inform them on whether to progress their investment plans.
They asked us to answer questions around:
- political stability and prospects for stability following the end of the president’s tenure;
- whether regional/local crises would post a threat to energy operations in the area of interest;
- the quality of energy sector governance and decision-making;
- how corruption affected investment and decision-making;
- NGO activity affecting energy development;
- prospects of international sanctions;
- how an ongoing maritime boundary dispute would affect investment;
- an assessment of security conditions in two locations.
