BMI Ratings Brief Methodology

The economic ratings assess the degree to which the country meets the ideal of non-inflationary growth with contained fiscal and external deficits and manageable debt ratios. The ratings use historical data and forecasts from BMIs country databases. As historical data is revised and forecasts change, so the ratings change. Factors in the long-term ratings include GDP growth, unemployment, inflation, real interest rates, exchange rates, the fiscal balance, the current account balance and external debt. A number of other structural factors are also included, such as dependence on the primary sector, reliance on commodity imports, reliance on a single export sector and central bank independence. The factors included in the short-term ratings are a subset of those in the long-term ratings.

In-Depth Analysis:
Economic Activity real GDP growth, employment, inflation and consumption (retail sales and confidence). Balance of Payments trade and investment, current and capital account. Monetary Policy interest rate trends (bank lending and deposit rates) and inflation (producer price and consumer price). Exchange Rate Policy currency controls, foreign investment flows, exchange rates and foreign exchange reserves. Fiscal Policy macroeconomic strategy and policies, government finance and tax reforms.
