Each development is currently assigned an 'impact' rating by our Intelligence Unit on a scale of 0-5. These ratings are absolute global ratings and are not relative to each market. The following general guide applies to impact ratings:
-
Highest scoring development are often considered significant events across more than one region and/or sector. They have global or multi-region impact either directly or indirectly.
-
Medium scoring developments are significant within one region or sector.
-
Low scoring developments impact certain countries and sectors or sub-sectors specifically. They may mark a small but important milestone.
