Receivables protection

Turn accounts receivable into a protected growth asset.

When customers buy on open-account terms, your balance sheet absorbs their credit risk. Trade credit insurance transfers defined nonpayment risks to an insurer—helping you sell with greater confidence at home and abroad.

Discuss this solution

What it is

Trade Credit Insurance

A policy insures eligible business-to-business receivables against covered losses such as customer insolvency, protracted default and, when included, political events that prevent payment. The exact coverage, waiting periods, deductibles and reporting requirements are negotiated in the policy.

Business impact

What the right structure can unlock.

01

Protect margin

A single major default can erase the profit from many successful sales. Coverage helps contain that concentration of loss.

02

Support growth

Evaluate larger limits, new customers and export markets with independent credit intelligence and risk capacity.

03

Strengthen financing

Insured receivables may help lenders view the borrowing base more favorably, subject to lender requirements.

04

Improve discipline

Formal credit limits, monitoring and reporting can reinforce internal credit-management practices.

Solution design

Structures built around the exposure.

Whole turnover

A broad portfolio structure covering eligible customers under one policy framework.

Key account or named buyer

Focused protection for selected strategic customers or concentrations, when available.

Single-buyer

Transaction or account-specific protection where one exposure drives the need.

Domestic and export

Commercial-risk coverage at home, with political-risk options for qualifying cross-border sales.
