In a world marked by trade wars, geopolitical fragmentation, and a surge in corporate insolvencies across nearly all advanced economies, expanding internationally without reliable insights has become increasingly risky. The Coface Country and Sector Risk Guide 2026 is designed to help businesses navigate this uncertainty with accurate, up‑to‑date, and actionable data.
A global and structured view of international risks
This new edition of the Coface Guide offers an in‑depth analysis of more than 160 countries and 13 major sectors, based on the recognized expertise of the Group’s economists.
Each country is assessed through a concise evaluation that includes:
- macroeconomic dynamics,
- financial strength,
- political and institutional environment,
- business climate and credit risk.
In addition, the sector analysis identifies, industry by industry, the vulnerability factors as well as pockets of resilience and growth on a global scale.
The result: a comprehensive and consistent understanding of risks, essential for comparing markets, making investment decisions, or securing business relationships.
Who is this Guide for?
For you, if you are a business leader, CFO, credit manager, or head of international development, and you need to answer questions such as:

Coface’s 2026 Country and Sector Risk Guide is designed to answer these questions, with the rigor of an institution that has been analyzing country risks for more than eight decades, and the precision of data built from the real‑world experience of thousands of international trade transactions.
