“Asian sovereigns are overtaking advanced western economies in their financial and economic stability.” With the input of 400 economists and specialists, Euromoney conducted its latest country risk survey. The results reveal a “profound shift in global perceptions.” Six Asian countries (Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Taiwan and Macau) have advanced more than 10 places in the rankings and Singapore is now considered the world’s second-safest sovereign. In contrast, the highest ranking Eurozone country is Finland in fifth place. Hong Kong was rated the tenth safest, trumping Germany which stands at thirteenth.
