How It Works ?

  1. Exporter enters into a sale contract with importers / buyers.
  2. The exporter concludes an insurance contract with ICIEC to cover non-payment risks of up to a certain percentage (e.g. 90%) and pays the premium.
  3. The exporter ships the goods to the buyers and declares the shipments to ICIEC
  4. In case one of the buyers fails to pay, the exporter submits a claim to ICIEC which indemnifies the exporter for up to 90% of the covered amount.
  5. ICIEC recovers from the buyer and pays 10% share to the exporter.
