Overview

How well do strategic trade controls function to stop the spread of nuclear weapons and other WMD? The Peddling Peril Index (PPI) for 2019/2020 is the latest edition of our comprehensive and in-depth ranking of the effectiveness of national strategic trade controls. It ranks 200 countries, territories, and entities according to their capabilities and demonstrated success in implementing export, import, transit, and transshipment controls of strategic goods and technologies. These controls are key to thwarting the spread of nuclear weapons, other destructive weapons, and the means to make them to additional states and non-state actors. The PPI assesses the actual implementation of strategic trade controls by each nation, among groups of countries with similar supply potential, and thematically. It evaluates a broad set of 101 indicators that build on an extensive survey of national legislation, enforcement, ability to monitor and detect illicit trade, and ability to prevent proliferation financing. The PPI reflects more than two decades of work by the Institute on understanding and characterizing illicit nuclear trade. The PPI seeks to highlight where countries are leading or lagging in their implementation of strategic trade controls, and to provide a basis for countries to improve their efforts. The goal is to work for strengthened strategic trade control systems worldwide.
