With the bells ready to toll for 2009 there are just days left before the general public is pummeled senseless by a slew of pointless annual and pan-noughties awards.

So, in a vain attempt at getting ahead of the pack, FT Alphaville is proud to present the (nearly) final league table positions for the 2009 CMA World’s Riskiest Sovereign Borrower award – (perhaps soon to be a Sky television series fronted by Steve “Phil Mitchell” McFadden?).

Take a bow then, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.
