Emerging markets: Which are most at risk? As the emerging world begins to stabilize after weeks of turbulence, this Economist graphic measures the financial stability of 66 emerging-market economies using four metrics: public and foreign debt levels, borrowing costs and foreign reserves.

Botswana — with its sizable stockpile of foreign reserves, low debt pile and booming mining sector — is sitting pretty as the strongest emerging-market economy. Venezuela and Lebanon — with perilously high levels of debt, high borrowing costs and depleted reserves — languish at the bottom of the heap. Egypt is ranked somewhere in the middle, with a relatively low level of foreign debt and adequate reserves but shouldering troubling amounts of public debt.
