Political risk is the probability that an investor or investors will lose money due to factors in a society, a government, or its international environment. Risk will vary according to the theory applied to projection and measurement (assessment). Risk also varies at different investor levels, i.e. for all foreign investors, for a particular industry, for a particular firm, or for a specific project.
