C - SMIVsInsurance of Medium- and Long-term Export Supplier Credit Covering Default Risk
Short description of insurance product and contacts
Case Study:
Sole trader Jan Kladívko comes home from an exhibition in Azerbaijan with the success of having found a new customer wishing to purchase nails and other materials for 20 million crowns, provided that there is a 30-month payment window for goods supplied. While this is a huge triumph for Mr Kladívko, it comes with risks attached. What if the new customer doesn’t pay for the nails? For Czech sole traders, a twenty-million-crown default could put them out of business. Because he is a sensible type, he takes the contract he has signed with the importer to EGAP. EGAP requires an upfront payment of at least 15% of the total value of the export from the Ukrainian importer. EGAP runs a solvency test on the Ukrainian importer and, if the result is favourable, enters into an insurance contract with Mr Kladívko. If the importer pays on time, everything is all right and the insurance contract ends. However, if the importer defaults, Mr Kladívko receives his money from EGAP instead.
