What Our Clients Are Saying About Us

RL Diamonte, et al.

Because we sought to quantify the importance of political risk in stock returns, we used ICRG’s political component as our proxy for political risk.
“Political Risk in Emerging and Developed Markets.” Financial Analysts Journal, May/June 1996: 71.

Dr Jin-young Kwak

...I would like to extend my sincere gratitude for PRS’s ongoing work to measure corruption and analyze the causes of corruption. The Korean government believes that the International Country Risk Guide is highly valuable and therefore is actively referring to the data for the development and implementation of anti-corruption policies.
Vice Chairperson of the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, The Republic of Korea

Dr Robert A Lawson

It's always a pleasure to work with PRS Group and its data. I deal with a lot of international data from a variety sources and customer service is often lacking. The PRS website works well and if you have a question or problem the staff are quick and cheerful about helping.
