The world is changing fast. Political risk - the probability that a political action could significantly impact a company's business - is affecting more businesses in more ways than ever before. A generation ago, political risk mostly involved a handful of industries dealing with governments in a few frontier markets.

My name is George A. Stewart, I am 43 years old, and I worked for 12 years as a store manager for Burger King - a truly dead end job.
