India ranks 7 of 50 countries on composite country risk; Waste & Recycling ranks 7 of 33 sectors on process risk. Every figure below shows its weight and its source.

What this page cannot tell you

Country and sector are 50% of Tieron’s risk axis by weight — the half that is knowable from public data alone. The rest is supplier-specific: conflict minerals exposure (weight 0.10), incident history (0.10) and information opacity (0.10). Impact — spend, substitution difficulty, continuity criticality — needs your own ledger. Upload a supplier list and those factors resolve per company, with the same provenance shown here.

A short note when the lists change in ways that matter for supply-chain screening. No noise.
Method: baseline risk is the weighted mean of country composite risk (weight 0.15) and sector risk (weight 0.15), using the same weights and the same weighted-mean form as the Tieron scoring engine restricted to those two factors. It is deterministic: the same inputs always produce the same number.
