Built on Nexus Standards
Names, identifiers, indicators, hazards, construction, evidence, metadata, citation, maps and licensing all follow Nexus Standards, so every value can be found, cited, recomputed and corrected.
Names on every page
Names follow the Nexus Standards public names register and naming conventions, so they avoid conflicts with other marks and resolve to their definitions.
- Sistema
- NXS-GRX (canonical data, provenance and risk), defined by NRS-S6
- Public index
- The Global Risks Index (NXS-GRX (canonical data, provenance and risk))
- Components
- NXS-GRX Cell Intelligence · NXS-GRX Cell Lens · NXS-GRX Data · NXS-GRX Data Identifiers · NXS-GRX Data Sources · NXS-GRX Global · NXS-GRX Graph · NXS-GRX Grid · NXS-GRX Passports · NXS-GRX Spatial Database
- Context names
- NXS-GRX-<REGION>, for example NXS-GRX-KEN; region codes are ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 or UN M49 (M002)
- Retired names
- Retired terms of the public names register never appear on a page; the build refuses them and rewrites them in data carried from sources.
- First mention
- The first mention of each name on a page links to its definition; a system carries its descriptor.
A system is named NXS-<SCOPE>, exactly so in prose, menus, titles and link text
A system is named NXS-<SCOPE>, exactly so in prose, menus, titles and link text; never "Nexus <word>", "NXS <SCOPE>" or lowercase.
On first mention on a page a system carries its descriptor, e
On first mention on a page a system carries its descriptor, e.g. "NXS-STU (composition, dashboards and workflows)", and links to its definition; later mentions use the short name.
A component is NXS-<SCOPE> <Descriptor>
A component is NXS-<SCOPE> <Descriptor>; a component built on a third-party project carries its credit wording and never the project name as its own.
A context is named by extension, NXS-<SCOPE>[-<DOMAIN>][-<SECTOR>][-<REGION>][-<ENV>] (NS-1, NS-9), and resolves to its contextual UNI
A context is named by extension, NXS-<SCOPE>[-<DOMAIN>][-<SECTOR>][-<REGION>][-<ENV>] (NS-1, NS-9), and resolves to its contextual UNI; a display name never carries a category or serial.
Institutions are named in full on first mention on every page: The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI), The Global Risks Forum (GRF), The Global Risks Alliance (GRA)
Institutions are named in full on first mention on every page: The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI), The Global Risks Forum (GRF), The Global Risks Alliance (GRA).
A retired term with match exact never appears on a public page
A retired term with match exact never appears on a public page; one with match contextual is replaced where it names the thing in this register and kept where it means something else (the note says which).
Link the first mention of every name on a page to its definition (definition
Link the first mention of every name on a page to its definition (its definition page); never link a retired term.

Universal Nexus Identifiers
Every artefact the index publishes is catalogued with a UNI; no UNI is typed by hand.
- Grammar
NXS-<SCOPE>-<CAT>[-<DOMAIN>][-<SECTOR>][-<REGION>][-<ENV>]-<SERIAL>[@<VERSION>]- URN
urn:nexus:uni:{uni}- Resolver
https://nexustandards.com/uni/{uni}- Allocation
- Los UNI los asigna el catálogo de Nexus Standards (NS1-R2), nunca se escriben a mano.
- Versiones
- A record version is cited as
recordUni@recordVersion, for exampleNXS-GRX-OB-KEN-000042@3. - On pages
- Every page carries its UNI in

Metadata, citation and maps
Conjuntos de datos
STAC 1.1 items whose id is the UNI, DCAT 3 records with the URN and DOI, and PROV-O bundles for lineage (NS-3b).
Citations
Every citation carries the UNI; derived works cite their source UNIs; CFF 1.2 and DataCite 4.5 forms (NS-2).
Maps and figures
UNI in metadata and caption, values traced to record UNIs, explicit no-data and degraded states, withheld features counted (NS-5).
API
Responses carry X-Nexus-UNI; the OpenAPI contract names every surface (NS-6).
Status and conformance
Nexus Standards are a preparatory working draft (status PROPOSED); NXS-GRX follows them as designed and does not claim conformance before NS-14 assessment.
Propose a change to a standard
Changes to Nexus Standards follow the standards development process (NS-13).
Estado
La metodología, la estructura y las definiciones de The Global Risks Index son un borrador de trabajo preparatorio (2026), difundido para examen y comentarios y no para su aplicación. Ningún valor aparece hasta que se publica una edición a partir de un corte de evidencia gobernado; los valores incluyen entonces intervalos, clases, fuentes y su vía de corrección. Los simuladores aplican los métodos publicados a las cifras que usted elija y nunca muestran un valor del NXS-GRX.
Lo que NXS-GRX no es
NXS-GRX es información de investigación y analítica de riesgos. No es una calificación crediticia ni ESG y no usa ninguna escala de calificación; no es un índice de referencia para instrumentos financieros, ni estadística oficial, ni una alerta de emergencia o clasificación oficial, ni asesoramiento. No debe usarse para evaluar a personas físicas. Las clases de riesgo son bandas en una escala publicada, nunca clasificaciones de países ni de personas.
Instituciones y fuentes
The Nexus Consortium is stewarded by three independent not-for-profit institutions: The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI), through GCRI US in Washington, DC and GCRI Canada in Ontario, with GCRI Canada as Lead Institution, Consortium Secretariat and lead contracting organisation; The Global Risks Forum (GRF); and The Global Risks Alliance (GRA). Technology, infrastructure and service providers work with the Consortium at arm’s length under written agreements, like every other external party in the public-private-planet model, and hold no role in its stewardship.
Cada valor lleva la atribución de sus fuentes, que conservan sus propias licencias. Los nombres externos se citan únicamente a efectos de interoperabilidad. Los textos de autoría de Nexus están destinados a publicarse bajo CC BY 4.0.
Avis en français
La méthodologie et les définitions du NXS-GRX sont un projet de travail préparatoire (2026). Le NXS-GRX est une information de recherche et d’analyse des risques : ni notation, ni indice de référence financier, ni statistique officielle, ni alerte, ni conseil. Les classes de risque sont des bandes sur une échelle publiée, non des classements.
