Use country risk index in combination with suppliers' information to identify risks

Get notified about which of your suppliers pose high, medium, and low risks within human rights, corruption, and water matters.
Filter on a risk index to find which suppliers pose a higher risk in human rights, corruption, and water matters.
Visualize your insights on a map based on country-risk
Worldfavor’s country-risk map enables you to get a high-level picture of which of your supplier poses higher risks depending on the risk scoring on each country.
