Political Risks are the potential negative impacts on an investment or business operation caused by political decisions, events, or conditions. Some examples of political risks include:

1. Changes in government policies: Government policies can change quickly and unexpectedly, leading to changes in the business environment and affecting the value of an investment.
2. Civil unrest or terrorism: Unrest or violence in a country can disrupt business operations, damage infrastructure, and lead to a loss of revenue.
3. Expropriation: Governments may seize assets or property without fair compensation, leading to investor value loss.
4. Currency controls: Governments may impose restrictions on the movement of money in and out of a country, making it difficult for businesses to access the money they need to operate.
5. Political corruption: Corruption can make it difficult for businesses to navigate a country’s legal and regulatory environment, leading to delays and increased costs.
6. Economic sanctions: Governments may impose economic sanctions on a country, limiting or prohibiting trade and investment, leading to a loss of revenue and potential loss of assets.
7. Regulatory changes: Governments can change laws and regulations, making it difficult for businesses to operate in a country and leading to a loss of revenue.
8. War and conflict: War and conflict can disrupt business operations, damage infrastructure and lead to a loss of revenue and potential loss of assets.
