Inquiry - Egypt’s Country Risk
Heike KensmannPosts: 164

Dear colleagues,
We did not change our cover policy recently: Our current short-term cover policy for transactions up to 360 days allows for cover case-by-case for public sector transactions, particularly for projects enhancing economic development. For private sector transactions, cover would be taken into consideration based on sound buyer information..
Our payment experience improved in the aftermath of the financial crises in 2023/2024, and our claims situation in Egypt has been stable in recent years.
Please feel free to contact us for any further information or to look at our country information website on Egypt.
Kind regards

Dear Phil,
The limit was granted some years ago (2020). However, there was no recent turnover covered, so the limit is currently not in use.

Thanks so much for the response Andrea and Euler Hermes.
Can I just ask how long your cover has been in place for and when it expires?
The reason I ask is that S&P reports indicate significant problems for Ecuador to finance and roll over its external debt in 2026.
Best regards
Phil

Inquiry about your action for the current situation in Yemen
Sonja WittkowskiPosts: 175

Dear Colleagues,
Thank you for your inquiry regarding export credit insurance in Yemen.
Under current circumstances we would be highly reluctant to new grant cover. We are closely monitoring the situation.
However, we still cover a small number of regular deliveries under long existing contracts and with short repayment terms.
Kind regards

Underwriting Guidelines and SOP in Response to Country Risks
Heike KensmannPosts: 164
|
Dear Colleagues,
Global developments are monitored closely by our team of country risk experts. In case of rising risks (e.g. the Russian invasion in Ukraine) we propose adjustments to our cover policy to our interministerial committee which decides on a case by case basis. Our underwriters then implement the decision of the interministerial committee (e.g. by suspending credit limits). We do not have a standard list of factors taken into consideration or a fixed time frame. Decisions are taken individually depending on the circumstances in the respective country.
Kind regards

Underwriting Guidelines and SOP in Response to Country Risks
THAIEXIMBANK AdminPosts: 131

Dear Colleagues,
In light of the increasing country risks in recent years—such as wars, civil unrest, geopolitical issues, terrorist attacks, and foreign currency shortages—which have inevitably impacted global trade and business, we are seeking your feedback on how you manage these risks in your Short Term Export Credit, Medium and Long Term, and Investment Insurance businesses.
Specifically, we would appreciate your kind response on the following points:
1. Have there been any changes to your underwriting guidelines in response to these events? If possible, please provide examples.
2. Do you have Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for handling such situations? If so, please provide a brief description.
3. What are the key factors that you will consider to stop underwriting or suspending or canceling the credit limit?
4. In the event of a conflict between two countries there are invasions or attack each other. What does your organization do? How long do you wait before taking any action?
5. Who is responsible for making decisions on these actions, such as continuing coverage or suspending the credit limit (e.g., underwriter or higher-level management)?
We believe that your insights will be precious to us. Thank you for sharing this information.
Best regards,
THAI EXIM
