Course Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to:
- Assess risks using fiscal, financial, external, and real sectors’ vulnerability indicators.
- Describe how vulnerabilities can morph into distress, leading to crises as a result of adverse shocks or a flawed policy mix.

- Adapt diagnostic tools, (organized as templates of country vulnerability reports), to their country data.
