    Default Range from X to Y and Z

    Hi

    Can anyone please tell me which is the correct idiom "Range from X to Y and Z" or "Range from X and Y to Z"?

    Despite its attractiveness, investing abroad can still pose big risks, ranging from the potential for political instability in some countries to the shortage of regulations to protect investors and a serious lack of information about investments in others.
