Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
0.1% annual new-conflict probability
How to read these probabilities: Scores estimate the probability of a new armed conflict starting within the next 12 months. Ongoing conflicts can have a saturation effect, reducing the modelled probability of an additional conflict onset. A low or falling score does not imply less severe ongoing fighting or a safer country. Existing conflicts are assessed through scenario analysis.

Risk assessment
Risk profile
The 12-month probability of a new armed-conflict onset in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is 0.1%, representing a minimal risk. The country’s small population, island geography, functioning parliamentary institutions, and limited history of organised political violence support a very low likelihood of civil conflict, rebellion, coup, or foreign attack on its territory.
Recent reporting provides no indication of armed mobilisation, political violence, insurgent activity, or interstate tension involving Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. The available coverage concerns a CONCACAF Nations League football match against Belize, with team news and line-ups, rather than security developments. No prediction market is available for this country.
The main uncertainty is the possibility of an abrupt and highly atypical political or security shock, which is not signalled by current reporting. Risk would rise materially if sustained armed violence, an attempted seizure of state power, organised militant activity, or a credible external threat emerged; continued institutional stability and the absence of such developments would support the current minimal level.
Strategic reasoning
- Saint Vincent and the Grenadines has no recent pattern of civil war, insurgency, coup-related fighting, or interstate conflict on its territory. Its island geography and limited strategic exposure further reduce plausible pathways to a new conflict onset.
- The current news signal is non-security-related: coverage of the Belize–Saint Vincent and the Grenadines CONCACAF Nations League fixture indicates routine regional interaction, while providing no evidence of escalation or armed-group activity.
Critical indicators
- On 30 September 2026, Sports Mole previewed the CONCACAF Nations League match between Belize and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, focusing on predictions, team news, and possible line-ups. The report contains no conflict or security-related development.
- Saint Vincent and the Grenadines’ established record of avoiding sustained internal armed conflict remains relevant to the 12-month assessment, distinguishing the country from states where existing violence could evolve into a new conflict onset.
