Industry Risk Ratings

Research Scope

By developing a quantifiable score to measure an industry's operational risk IBISWorld are able to provide a truly unique product to help you assess the opportunities and threats that exist in your business environment. The Risk Rating Reports are designed as a natural compliment to our Industry Reports. Taking the analysis one step further Risk Rating Reports can help you to make strategic planning, investment or lending decisions.

The IBISWorld Risk Rating service measures the difficulty of the operating conditions for companies within each of the 500 industries of Australia. While many risk rating models determine risk by using historical information, IBISWorld's Industry Risk Rating is forward looking, and determines the level of risk an industry will face over the coming 12-18 months.

In determining an industry's risk rating, we look at three different types of risk inherent to the industry: an industry's Structural Risk, its Growth Risk, and its Sensitivity Risk.

There is a high level of strategic analysis behind each score and the components that make up the score. This is examined within 15-20 pages of strategic research and forecasting that provide the analysis behind the numbers.

A dedicated team of economic analysts provides comprehensive and strategic research to ensure this product is an accurate tool in enabling your business to secure a strategic edge in a changing marketplace. We classify our industries according to the Australian and New Zealand Standard Industry Classification system (ANZSIC). Each risk score is updated dynamically to ensure that any emerging threats to an industry's risk profile are captured and entered into the model.
