Grade how effectively each region's government is responding to active crisis signals
This page grades each region from A to F on how its stress is evolving. No feed of policy announcements sits behind it: the grades come from CrisisBoard's own data - how high the crisis score sits against its maximum, whether it is rising or falling across recent readings, and how many signals have fired or cleared in the past 24 hours. Regions are listed worst first, with trend, response speed and an effectiveness score.
How to read it. A good grade means stress is contained or receding: the score is low for its range and signals are clearing. A falling grade with a worsening trend means stress is building faster than it is being absorbed. Compare the trend with the grade - an improving trend on a low grade is often the first sign that a response is working.
Limitations. Because grades come from market and news data rather than actual policy decisions, they measure outcomes, not intentions. The action and recommendation notes in each row are generic templates by region type, not reports of specific measures. Trends use the most recent score readings - a window of minutes - so grades can swing with short-term moves.
