Country political risk, event by event.

Follow coups, unrest, armed conflict and trade measures in the countries behind your limits, with the place, the time and the reports behind each event.

The problem

A country review is only as fresh as its last report.

Country reviews run on a cycle. Events do not. Between two reviews, a buyer’s country can see a coup, a curfew or a new export ban.

Tellurial turns news, official feeds and public channels into one structured record per event, filed by country and region, and updated every 5–10 minutes.

Trade credit, surety and political risk teams get a dated, sourced account of what happened, to set beside their own country view when a limit or a claim is reviewed.

What you get

What changed in a country, and how sure we are.

Country and region view

Events are filed by country and region, so you can follow the places your buyers and suppliers operate in, and see how a situation develops over days and weeks.

Political risk in categories

Coups and unrest, political violence and armed conflict are separate categories, so a protest is not counted as a war and a war is not hidden among protests.

coup_or_unrest · political_violence · armed_conflict

Sanctions and trade measures

Reported sanctions, export bans and other trade measures are recorded next to the events on the ground, in the same record.

sanctions_or_trade_measure

Disruption to trade routes

Port, canal and shipping disruption is its own category, for counterparties whose goods have to move.

port_or_shipping_disruption

Separate answers

For the more significant incidents, severity, confidence and materiality are separate fields. Anything not assessed is left empty rather than guessed.

severity · confidence · materiality · null = not assessed

An example

One week in one country.

The view counts events by category and keeps the reports behind each one. This example is illustrative.

How teams use it

Available today in WarStrikes.

Watch a country list

Save the countries behind your largest limits and return to one view, instead of many news searches.

Brief the team

A daily briefing by region gives underwriting, risk and claims teams the same starting point.

Connect your systems

Pull events and signals into your own country risk tools through the API, or export them from the workspace.

What it does not do

What we leave to you.

No country ratings

We do not score countries or publish country ratings. The record shows what happened, so your own rating stays yours.

No view on a buyer

We do not assess companies, credit quality or payment behaviour. We record events, not counterparties.

No forecasts

We record and assess what was reported. We do not predict unrest, defaults or claims.

Graded evidence

Each record shows what the sources said and how strongly they support it. Confidence tells you how far to rely on it.

Start with three countries of your choice.
