Euler Hermes Economic Research : Country Risk
The economic and political environment of the country you trade in has a significant impact on the quality and reliability of your commercial relationships and eventually the payment issued by your buyers.
Know where you trade: usual payment delays, the health of the local economy, the local political system's stability, the local currency and the local legal environment are crucial factors that will allow you to trade securely.
