The presence of international actors, sectarian tensions, and fluctuations in oil production make this a high-risk environment. We continuously monitor the region, including military movements, insurgent attacks, and other potential changes.

Our team tracks political dynamics, sanctions, movements of key actors, and any critical events that could impact our clients with interests in this region.
