Export Guarantee and Insurance Corporation (EGAP)
We are a leader in insuring political and commercial risks associated with the export of goods, services and investments from the Czech Republic and their financing.
We provide services to Czech exporters and investors regardless of their size, legal form or volume of insured exports. We are here for all companies looking for a reliable and long-term partnership for their export activities.
We protect Czech companies against the risk of non-payment of debts by the debtor caused by political changes, expropriation, war or the non-election of a foreign partner.
Our insurance product portfolio provides comprehensive support for export activities from the initial bid submission, through financing of production or working capital, to payment of the last instalment for delivery or settlement of a performance bond.
We fill existing gaps in the export and investment finance market for exporters. We enhance the ability of exporters and investors to adapt to dynamic developments and challenges in a globalised trading environment.
Since 1992, we have been helping Czech companies, when EGAP was established as a fully state-owned joint stock company. The Czech Republic exercises its shareholder rights through the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic. Our activities are governed by the Insurance Act No. 277/2009 Coll., and Act No. 58/1995 Coll., on Insurance and Financing of Exports with State Support.
