At its October meeting, the OECD Consensus member countries decided on a new classification of the three countries. El Salvador and Mauritania improved by one level, while Senegal dropped by one level in the country risk ranking.

Thus, for export credit agencies such as Eximbank, El Salvador and Mauritania represent a lower level of risk and Senegal a higher level of risk as of October 10, 2025.
