About Statistics Publications & Documents Information by Country

Historical country risk classification rates.  These are the rates since 1999.

Estonia joined OECD on 9 December 2010.  As OECD membership is one of the criteria that determines whether a country is classified in Country Risk Category Zero under Article 25c) of the Arrangement, the act of joining the organisation has resulted in Estonia now being classified in Category 0 as a high income OECD country.  This is also the case for Israel.
