Today, many risks, including economic, financial, and political ones, threaten the economies of countries. On the other hand, governments try to manage the negative consequences and neutralize or minimize their impact on the economy. A review of the situation shows that most underdeveloped and developing countries, especially those rich in natural resources (resource rents), have been severely affected by these internal and external shocks (resource curse) due to their high dependence on oil revenues; in contrast, developed countries have suffered less by adopting appropriate policies. The purpose of this study is to construct and introduce a composite resource curse vulnerability index and then investigate the impact of each of the economic, financial, and political risks on the resource curse vulnerability index. Therefore, using the latest available data, the econometric approach of panel data was performed for 14 selected countries in the Mena region from 2005 to 2018. Results indicate an inverse and significant relationship between independent variable risks on the dependent variable (resource curse vulnerability index), which confirms the research hypotheses.

In regulating oil contracts applying the appropriate contractual framework is necessary to meets the interests of both parties and maximize the absorption of foreign investment and advanced technology. In terms of distributing benefits between parties, the key element is the contract optimum flexibility. Flexibility of financial regime in buy back contracts, participation in production and Iran new oil contracts through simulation of the financial model using Excel software and Visual Basic programming language under two rigorous and conventional scenarios has been studied for the first t in this manuscript. In rigorous scenario the parameters of buy back contract between Iran national oil company and Shell Co. and parameters of two other contracts are estimated in such a way that original and achieved results are the same. Then, the effect of the estimated parameters on the distribution of gross income and the efficiency of the parties is investigated and with the aim of analyzing the degree of flexibility of contracts, the sensitivity of the efficiency and receipts of the parties to the changing price and capital costs is studied. Results showed financial regime in participation contracts allow the parties to coordinate the contents and structure of the contract with its benefits. While some of the inefficient tools of buy back and Iran new oil contracts have led to a lack of optimal flexibility in changing economic conditions.
