How much does political risk insurance cost?

PRI premiums vary widely depending on the country, coverage type, policy limits, and duration. Annual premiums typically range from 0.3% to 2.5% of the insured amount, with higher-risk countries and longer tenors commanding higher rates.

What countries are covered by PRI?

PRI is available for most countries outside of sanctioned jurisdictions. Coverage is most commonly purchased for investments and trade in emerging and frontier markets in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, and parts of Asia.

Can PRI be combined with trade credit insurance?

Yes. Many businesses use trade credit insurance to cover commercial buyer default risk and PRI to cover the political risks in the same markets. Impello Global regularly structures combined programs that address both commercial and political exposures.

How long does it take to obtain PRI coverage?

Standard PRI placements can be completed in two to four weeks. Complex transactions involving multiple countries, large limits, or public agency involvement may require additional time for underwriting and documentation.
