The invention provides with means to predict, in subjects affected by type 2 diabetes (T2D), the probability of developing complications related to the disease. The invention involves 1) use of genetic features (SNPs, STRs, or other genomic markers) together with other chromosomal features and phenotypic information to establish a patient profile specifically developed for prediction of complications of T2D 2) use of a set of SNPs allowing to discriminate between individuals according to their descent. A preferred set of genomic markers selected for their association with complications of T2D is provided that can be used with a set of complementary phenotypic markers to evaluate the risk for an individual affected by T2D to develop complications related to the disease and to evaluate the likelihood that an individual affected by T2D type will benefit from treatments reducing the risk of developing such complications.
