Size/Importance of the Pressure/Impact (0-10, size, extent, importance relative to benchmark; 0=major impact on the assets/values, 10=negligible impact on the assets/values)

Trend in Pressure/Impact I, S or D (pressure is abating =Improving conditions; pressure remains steady = Stable conditions; pressure is increasing =Declining conditions)
