An integration
of market value, vigilance in protection of cultural property,
and security provide an indication of risk for repatriation.
Assessment of risk for the past decade yielded the trends
shown to the right.
Antiquities presented the greatest risk of repatriation across
the decade, while pre-Columbian art and African tribal art
demonstrated a steady increase in risk. |

As a complement
to the ARI, the Cultural Diplomacy Index (CDI) indicates states
parties to UNESCO conventions for the protection and repatriation
of cultural property. Once a nation has accepted or ratified
a convention, the CDI for that nation increases with time.
The CDI provides one measure of the vigilance of a nation
in pursuing repatriation of cultural patrimony.
The map to the right shows the Cultural Diplomacy Index (CDI)
for 2010.
