How to read these probabilities: Scores estimate the probability of a new armed conflict starting within the next 12 months. Ongoing conflicts can have a saturation effect, reducing the modelled probability of an additional conflict onset. A low or falling score does not imply less severe ongoing fighting or a safer country.

Analyst briefing

Which country currently has the highest probability of a new armed conflict onset?

Ethiopia tops the model's ranking with a 58.0% probability of a new armed conflict onset on its own territory within 12 months. This reflects Ethiopia's recent history of internal conflict, regional instability in the Horn of Africa, and persistent governance and economic stresses that the model weighs heavily.

A clear methodology for translating conflict risk into financial loss.

Silfio breaks geopolitical risk into a traceable chain: events, severities, inventory, vulnerability, investment shocks, then financial loss.
