Since 1990, global population growth has outpaced growth in global agricultural output. In the future, climate change may threaten both water resources and agricultural productivity. The Aon/Oxford Analytica Food and Water Insecurity Index assesses countries' vulnerability to disruptions in food and water supplies, combining 20 statistical indicators representing water insecurity, food insecurity, vulnerability to global warming, current levels of food/water stress and a country's capacity to react and adapt to unexpected food/water disruptions or shocks. The table below represents Aon's 'Top 30', based on those countries for which there has been the greatest number of requests for Political Risk insurance during 2009. It is not an exhaustive list; other countries for which Aon has seen a high demand for Political Risk cover include Afghanistan, Algeria, Benin, Bolivia, Colombia, Egypt, Georgia, Guatemala, Indonesia, Iraq, Kenya, Lebanon, Mexico, Peru, Philippines,Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Thailand, Togo, Uzbekistan and Vietnam.

Global agricultural supplies may be disrupted by many factors, including political violence, natural disasters, water insecurity and global warming. Aon and Oxford Analytica have developed assessments of supply disruption risk for more than 170 countries and nine agricultural commodities. Below, key commodities are ranked by the degree to which world supplies are concentrated in countries facing disruption risks. Also listed are other lower-risk 'Primary Producers' accounting for more than 5% of global production.

SOVEREIGN PAYMENT RISK PERCEPTIONSSOVEREIGN PAYMENT RISK PERCEPTIONSThese graphs display the shifts in market perceptions of sovereign payment risks for key

countries, based on conditions in trade credit and political risk insurance markets.
