What is a Credit Insurance?

It is a tool that protects companies from the risk of non-payment of accounts receivable both in the domestic and international markets, caused by declared insolvency or presumed insolvency, or by unpaid debts for more than six months. It is a financial and commercial tool that helps companies grow in the markets they operate in by monitoring and assessing the credit of their client portfolio.

How does Credit Insurance work?

Coverage

In the event of a potential claim, InSur will indemnify up to 90% of the non-payment. In this way, the policyholder retains a minor portion of the risk, allowing them to maintain a responsible credit granting and management policy.

Global Scope

The credit portfolio can be insured either fully or partially, according to objective selection criteria agreed upon between the Company and the policyholder.

Risk Analysis

Our Risk Analysis Department is highly specialized, with a team of excellent professionals dedicated to analyzing and monitoring the clients of our policyholders, in order to anticipate potential non-payments.

Disponemos de una amplia base de datos, permanentemente actualizada según información financiera, datos de bases públicas y el cruce de información respecto al comportamiento de pago de los clientes con cada uno de sus proveedores, herramienta altamente valorada por nuestros asegurados.

InSur cuenta con un Sistema de Aprobación Automática de Límites de Crédito, permitiendo a nuestros asegurados tener acceso a respuestas instantáneas online  a través de nuestra pataforma Extranet.

Types of Coverage
Credit Insurance

Domestic Credit Insurance

It provides coverage for credit sales made in the domestic market to legal entities with a commercial purpose. The policyholder’s domestic credit portfolio is divided into two types of clients: named and unnamed, according to the credit limit granted to each one, establishing a division that will depend on the dispersion of the portfolio and the sales volumes agreed with the clients.

Export Credit Insurance

It provides coverage for credit sales made in the international market, covering the commercial risk of exports based on the risk analysis conducted by a team of experts. Additionally, periodic monitoring of clients is carried out, as well as the collection of any unpaid debts, which is particularly important abroad due to legal, language, and cultural differences.

It allows you to export to current and new customers under previously evaluated credit conditions, without the need to require payment guarantees, saving time and resources for clients who do not financially qualify.

The policyholder can additionally purchase a special clause to cover Political Risk, which covers losses arising from non-payment of credits due to political decisions or situations unrelated to the buyer’s insolvency. This includes:

• War, civil war, revolution, or occupation of territory by foreign forces.

• Expropriation or confiscation, requisition of goods, or delay in currency transfer due to lack of government instructions.

• Cancellation of export or import permits.

• Unilateral contract cancellation by the importer’s government.

InSur also provides coverage for credit sales made by companies established or domiciled outside of Argentina, or by subsidiaries of our policyholders, who wish to cover their exports or local market sales.

Complementary Services

Evaluation and monitoring of the portfolio

The credit customer portfolio is evaluated through a financial analysis conducted by specialists, who also advise the policyholder on setting the credit limits to be granted. Additionally, continuous monitoring is carried out, informing and warning the policyholder of any situation that may suggest or anticipate payment problems.

Collection in case of Claims

InSur will handle the collection management, both pre-judicial and judicial, in Uruguay as well as the rest of the world.
