What is sovereign risk? And why does it matter so much in today’s cross-border lending environment?
Duncan Bagshaw is joined by Jessica Melville to explore the key elements of sovereign risk, including political and economic drivers, enforcement challenges, and the practical tools lenders use to mitigate exposure in emerging markets.
The discussion also looks at:
- Why sovereign defaults have brought risk structuring back into sharp focus
- The role of contractual protections and governing law
- How multilateral and development finance institutions can help de risk transactions
Jessica also shares insights on how lenders are adapting their approach to sovereign lending in an increasingly complex global landscape.
