CREDIT AND POLITICAL RISK INSURANCE

A proactive and informative underwriting approach adaptable to each client’s needs

Cincinnati Global adds superior value by providing a proactive and informative underwriting approach that is transparent and consistent for the partners with whom we do business. We are specialists with more than 40 years of experience underwriting credit, contract frustration and political risk insurance products.

For companies trading with private and public counterparties, Cincinnati Global provides CPRI to protect against non-payment risk. This can include traditional, short-term trade finance in respect of the sale or purchase of goods on deferred payment or delivery terms, or CPRI can encompass more complex and structured trade finance requirements for lengthier durations.

We can also provide investment cover for clients who have assets abroad which are exposed to geopolitical influences affecting the security of their assets.

Our client base spans a wide range of industry sectors, including:

  • Energy
  • Industrials
  • Materials
  • Consumer staples
  • Telecommunications and information technology
