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).

差距 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
次国家层面覆盖薄弱且不可比 ADM1, ADM2 and one H3 fabric for hazard, exposure and capacity
很少报告不确定性;排名被过度解读 90% intervals, class probabilities and Sobol sensitivity on every value; no league tables
数据滞后一至三年 Pulse instrument: weekly nowcast over admitted event streams
很少有指数进行预测或回测 展望工具,附公开的验证评分卡
情景预测稀少且仅限宏观层面 Pathways instrument: SSP × warming level and transition families to 2030, 2050 and 2100
感知风险与测量风险混为一谈 Perception instrument kept separate, with a published gap
Values rarely trace to sources, versions and licences 记录级来源追溯、许可关口、公开更正日志
机器访问能力弱(PDF 和电子表格发布) API, SDMX keys, vector tiles, bulk files and versioned releases
许可限制阻碍衍生再利用 按来源的许可关口;扣留的值计入统计
Coverage gaps cluster in fragile and small-island states Coverage vector per country; imputation flagged and capped
纸面上的能力被误认为实际表现 Capability ladder from listed to demonstrated in real events
方法变更破坏可比性 语义化版本、回溯序列、每次发布的摘要
Neglected domains: AI, space weather, biosecurity, minerals, digital infrastructure, tail risk Exponential technology and strategic systems series; Tail instrument
各指数之间没有共享分类体系 hazards with HIPs crosswalks; indicators with 501 crosswalks to source code lists
平均值掩盖了厚尾 Exceedance curves, return-period losses and expected shortfall where loss can be modelled
