High Risk Markets also have High Rewards, but knowledge and automation are key
Higher Risk = Challenges
Providing services to higher risk markets requires more overhead. This includes business validation, operational checkpoints, and comprehensive reviews. If you are doing this manually then it can mean doubling staff, heavy training and setting up satellite branches.
This process can be compounded when branches are closed or reducing staff.
