BPL Global continues to lead the way in developing products which mitigate the full range of political risks facing investors’ foreign equity investments or owned property. We have extensive experience in arranging coverage for single situation risks as well as structuring insurance programmes for clients on a worldwide basis. Due to our claims experience in this sector, we have in-depth understanding of the breadth of coverage required by clients, in addition to the associated technical know-how needed for these complex, multi-peril placements. We deal with over 50 private insurers around the world that specialise in CPRI with an aggregated capacity per risk of approximately US$3 billion and policy period capability of up to 15 years. The private market insurers can be either an alternative to the government and multilateral insurance programmes, or we can combine the two – whichever is best for our clients. 20% of our business portfolio’s aggregated exposure is attributable to Investment Insurance and PV coverage. Our products Our standard Investment Insurance product is aimed at a corporate client’s foreign investments and normally provides coverage for expropriation, political violence, currency inconvertibility and breach of contract. We also provide bespoke property-based Political Violence and Political Risk Insurance against physical damage and resulting business interruption across the PV spectrum, from riot and terrorism to revolution and war. In addition to this regular cover, we can provide extended ‘war risks’ cover for land-based property, including capture, seizure, confiscation and abandonment – areas usually excluded by a standard PV policy.
