Equity Risk Premium
The Equity Risk Premium (ERP) represents the additional return that investors require for taking on the risk of investing in equities over risk-free assets, such as government bonds. It reflects the compensation investors expect for the uncertainty and volatility associated with stock market investments. The ERP is a critical component in determining the cost of equity in valuation models and assessing investment opportunities.Jan. 5, 2024:

Adj. Default Spread
The adjusted default spread is calculated by taking the sovereign CDS spread and adjusting it for factors like the country’s credit rating and macroeconomic conditions. This adjusted spread reflects the risk premium specific to the sovereign debt, providing a more accurate measure of the default risk. It helps in estimating the additional return required by investors for holding that sovereign debt relative to a risk-free benchmark.Jan. 5, 2024:

Sovereign CDS Spread
The Sovereign CDS Spread is calculated by comparing the CDS spread of a sovereign bond to a risk-free rate, such as the yield on government bonds from a highly rated country. The CDS spread represents the risk premium for default, with higher spreads indicating higher perceived risk. Adjustments for credit ratings may be made to estimate the sovereign’s default probability and overall credit risk.TW published nothing for this dataset.

Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) · OECD
Inflow-to-Outflow Ratio - A/L
The FDI inflow-outflow ratio (Asset/Liability Principle) measures the balance of foreign direct investment inflows and outflows for a country, using currency-converted values (quoted in USD) across all sectors. Unlike the Directional Principle, which focuses on the flow direction of investments, the Asset/Liability Principle classifies FDI based on the ownership of assets and liabilities. This ratio helps track changes in financial relationships and assess economic stability, aiding in strategic policy and investment decisions.TW published nothing for this dataset.
