Abstract: Country risk reflects a country’s overall risk status, and it has an extremely important impact on global investment and trade between countries. This study is conducted to examine country risk analysis and assessment models. The historical stages of country risk assessment are characterized, and the development and application of country risk analysis and assessment techniques are reviewed. Country risk assessment modelling techniques developed in two major frameworks: Multi-criteria decision-making framework based on macroeconomic fundamentals and asset pricing framework based on market information. Based on our analysis, we identify current trends and research gaps, as well as relevant future research directions.
