Abstract
Country risk and in particular political risk may constitute a large part of the total risk investors face when investing in emerging markets. It is not a straightforward task to quantify and include these types of risks in the evaluation and valuation of real investments. We suggest a method involving country risk indices. The approach is based on the real option approach for valuation of real investments.
