Exportação Segura

Share

Innovative offer in Portugal, which covers risk collection in occasional export operations, invoice by invoice. Developed in partnership with COSEC and exclusive for BPI Clients.

Background

The Exportação Segura credit insurance is a partnership of BPI and COSEC, Portuguese leader in credit insurance (according to the Portuguese Insurance Association) and 50% held by BPI and by Euler Hermes. Euler Hermes is the world leader in credit insurance (according to ICISA – International Credit Insurance and Surety Association), with a presence in 52 countries.

This insurance covers the non-payment risk for single operations (invoice by invoice) for the sale of goods and services abroad, without the need to guarantee the complete Client portfolio.

It is aimed at new exporters and companies with the intention of diversifying their export activity towards new Clients and/or markets.

Advantages

  • Greater security in commercial transactions made for the external market: coverage of risks of late payment (arrears), bankruptcy or insolvency of the client, approval of composition or moratorium, insufficiency of funds;
  • It promotes the increase of company sales, insofar as it provides greater security for export commercial transactions, both with new and current Clients;
