Europe's Move Could Have Benign Effect on Iran's Risk Ranking

As the US ramps up its hostility against Iran, several economic sectors have taken a hit. One among many is the global risk rating.
Among the benefits of the 2015 nuclear deal Iran signed with world powers in 2015 was the lowering of the country's Country Risk Classifications by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
