Summary

S. J. Rundt & Associates, Inc. is a 57-year old consulting and publishing firm dedicated to helping multinational companies, exporters, importers, banks and investors assess risks and opportunities in their international strategies and transactions. At Rundt's we provide an essential source of information, independent judgement and forecasts on global developments in trade & finance, economic and political trends, and government regulations.

We count among our clients and subscribers executives from most of the Fortune 500 companies, multinational banks, export credit and investment insurers, law firms, accounting firms and government agencies on all continents. Many have come to rely on our impartial analysis and unbiased projection as an indispensable early-warning system for their decisions.

Our reviews cover 185 countries. They draw on a global network of knowledgeable observers and insiders with whom we have cooperated closely for many years, in some cases since our establishment in 1952. We pride ourselves on the insight that experience gives our analysts into the forces driving national governments and their policies, and on the foresight that springs from such understanding. Country risk analysis is our only business. We always have been, and always will be, totally independent in our judgment.
