Reviews

From the reviews: "Political, Economic, and Financial Country Risk. Analysis of the Gulf Cooperation Council is an extremely resourceful book, offering a wide range of information not only on the GCC states but also on widespread rating practices. To a certain degree, the book can be used as a handbook ... . practitioners could also benefit from more links between the single facts that would at times make it easier to get a bigger picture of the issues at stake." (Annika Kropf, Review of Middle East Economics and Finance, Vol. 10 (1), 2014)
