Effective
Risk Transfer
The Tyser Political and Trade Finance Risk team are experts in enabling
effective risk transfer for organisations involved in cross border
transactions, investments and projects – from traders to corporations
to financiers.
There are many risks faced every day by organisations trading
and operating around the world. Risks range from contractual
non-payment and government intervention to politically motivated
violence and Force Majeure events. Each of which can lead
to a serious potential financial loss for an organisation.
In a world of ever increasing competition and heightened
political tensions organisations must seek the most effective
means of managing their risks. A key tool in effective cross-border
risk management is political risk and trade credit insurance.
The private political risk and trade credit insurance market
is well established having been operating for over thirty
years. The development of the market has led to its positive
acceptance by traders, corporations, multinationals, financiers
and the publicly owned Export Credit Agencies.
Today, you are just as likely to see the private insurance
market co-operating and working with financial institutions
than compete against them to ensure that clients have the
best risk transfer mechanism.
The
Benefits of Political and Trade Finance Risk insurance
Political risk and trade finance insurance provides policy
holders with many benefits. In addition to the normal positive
reasons for purchasing insurance – increased confidence,
security and risk management – there are serious commercial
benefits:
- Enables improved access to finance
- Enables an organisation to do greater business than
imposed country limits allow
- Enables an organisation to do greater business than
imposed counterparty limits allow
- Provides greater confidence and risk management when
accessing new / non-traditional markets
- Access to knowledge held by the insurance market in
structuring transactions
