Geopolitical risk
From ACT Wiki
1. Risk management.
Any political tension occurring in a country - or between two or more countries - which could lead to riots, secession or wars, to the point where it affects the physical security of an organisation's counterparties or personnel, or the permanent disruption of the movement of goods or services.
Geopolitical risk overlaps with political risk.
