The risk index landscape

What the world’s risk indices measure, how, and where they stop, so NXS-GRX (canonical data, provenance and risk) can interoperate with them and close the gaps between them. Source series are read where licences admit and never re-weighted.

What no index does yet

Established risk and resilience indices, read for interoperability and validity checks. Names are those of their stewards and are cited for reference only; no text of any index is reproduced and no endorsement is implied. Commercial providers are described by category. Indicator counts change between editions; the current methodology note of each index governs. NXS-GRX (canonical data, provenance and risk) relation: SOURCE (a published series NXS-GRX may read as a source where its licence admits, never re-weighted), CROSSWALK (used for validity checks and mapping), COMPLEMENT (a different object NXS-GRX does not reproduce).

شکاف NXS-GRX design
No index unifies hazard, vulnerability, conflict, macro-finance, cyber, health, food, nature and technology in one structure Twenty index domain indices in four pillars, one grammar
Systemic and cascading risk is described, not modelled Coupling instrument: typed dependency networks, contagion models, coupled beside standalone composite
پوشش زیرملی اندک و غیرقابل مقایسه است ADM1, ADM2 and one H3 fabric for hazard, exposure and capacity
عدم قطعیت به‌ندرت گزارش می‌شود؛ رتبه‌ها بیش از حد تفسیر می‌شوند 90% intervals, class probabilities and Sobol sensitivity on every value; no league tables
داده‌ها یک تا سه سال تأخیر دارند Pulse instrument: weekly nowcast over admitted event streams
شاخص‌های اندکی پیش‌بینی می‌کنند یا پس‌آزمایی می‌شوند ابزار چشم‌انداز با کارنامه‌های راستی‌آزمایی منتشرشده
پیش‌نگری‌های سناریو کمیاب و فقط کلان‌اند Pathways instrument: SSP × warming level and transition families to 2030, 2050 and 2100
ریسک ادراک‌شده و سنجیده‌شده درهم آمیخته‌اند Perception instrument kept separate, with a published gap
Values rarely trace to sources, versions and licences خاستگاه در سطح سابقه، دروازهٔ پروانه، سیاههٔ اصلاحات عمومی
دسترسی ماشینی ضعیف است (انتشار به‌صورت PDF و صفحه‌گسترده) API, SDMX keys, vector tiles, bulk files and versioned releases
محدودیت‌های پروانه استفادهٔ مجدد مشتق را مسدود می‌کنند دروازهٔ پروانه برای هر منبع؛ مقادیر نگه‌داشته‌شده شمرده می‌شوند
Coverage gaps cluster in fragile and small-island states Coverage vector per country; imputation flagged and capped
ظرفیت روی کاغذ با عملکرد اشتباه گرفته می‌شود Capability ladder from listed to demonstrated in real events
روش‌ها تغییر می‌کنند و مقایسه‌پذیری را می‌شکنند نسخه‌های معنایی، سری‌های پس‌محاسبه‌شده، چکیده برای هر انتشار
Neglected domains: AI, space weather, biosecurity, minerals, digital infrastructure, tail risk Exponential technology and strategic systems series; Tail instrument
طبقه‌بندی مشترکی میان شاخص‌ها نیست hazards with HIPs crosswalks; indicators with 501 crosswalks to source code lists
میانگین‌ها دنباله‌های پهن را پنهان می‌کنند Exceedance curves, return-period losses and expected shortfall where loss can be modelled
