Credit risks: protecting company values and growth
The commercial success of many companies lives and dies with their trade network. Despite supply chains and customer networks becoming increasingly complex in the course of globalisation, many trading firms and manufacturers only supply their products to one or a few main customers even today.
Should one of these main customers fail to pay, either due to insolvency or reluctance to pay, a company can quickly find itself facing substantial losses that threaten its very survival. And when companies are expanding their portfolio of customers, they often have to grant credit to new customers and therefore sometimes face considerable credit risks.

Claim cover
International coordination of credit insurance cover has gained enormous importance. The reason for this is primarily that flows of goods are being increasingly globalised.

Insolvency rescission
If a business partner is unable to make payments, the insolvency administrator also checks payments from years prior, posing a risk of unforeseen clawbacks.
Surety insurance protects your projects
Clients want security for their projects. With surety insurance, companies meet their bond obligation and still retain financial freedom.
