Country Risk Data Quality and Coverage

Data quality indicates confidence in the available indicator coverage for each country.

Data Quality Fields

Each indicator family may include:

• dataQualityCategorical
• dataQualityNumeric

Categorical Levels

The categorical level may be one of:

• Very Good
• Good
• Medium
• Poor
• Very Poor
• Not Available

How to Use Data Quality in Decisions

Use data quality as a gating signal before score-based decisions:

• Very Good/Good: strong confidence for score interpretation
• Medium/Poor: use with caution and additional context
• Very Poor/Not Available: avoid score-only decisions

Minimum Coverage Effects

If country coverage is below threshold:

• score may be null
• countryRank may be null
• riskClassification* fields may be null

In these cases, treat the indicator as unavailable and avoid comparative ranking decisions.
