Political Risk

Political risk originates from civic revolution or other political conditions that can ultimately result in loss

As globalization increases, more corporations are transacting across the globe than ever before, thus increasing the level of exposure to political risk. Political Risk coverage enables investors to realize the full upside potential of foreign investments, while mitigating the exposure of often catastrophic and unforeseen political events.

In order to assess your need for this coverage, you need to know the risks. Types of political risk include, but are not limited to:

  • Political violence, such as revolution, insurrection, civil unrest, terrorism or war
  • Governmental expropriation or confiscation of assets
  • Governmental frustration or repudiation of contracts
  • Wrongful calling of letters of credit or similar on-demand guarantees
  • Business interruption
  • Inconvertibility of foreign currency or the inability to repatriate funds
