A missed payment does not automatically become an insurance claim. Waiting periods are designed to give businesses and insurers time to assess whether a payment delay is temporary or a more serious default. Our latest blog breaks down how waiting periods work, why they matter, and how they help exporters navigate payment delays with greater clarity and structure.

As the article points out, the question is no longer if this crisis affects them but rather when and how? Though Warren points out that there is no definitive answer to these questions yet, he does point out that: “This kind of thing could cause defaults and missed payments. We make sure that there is export credit, like bank loans and other things. In the future, this kind of thing could cause exporters to miss payments, which could then cause the banks to make a claim on the loan.” From an ECIC perspective however, Warren highlights that the Corporation has strong solvency cover, and it hasn’t gone over any risk-appetite limits: “This is exactly the kind of organisation you want on your side when the world’s bottlenecks start to close.” Read the full article here: bit.ly/48P8bZs #ECIC #Straitofhormuz #exporttrade #oilprices #globaltrade #Middleeast #Africa #Iran #SouthAfricanexports #exportfinance #creditinsurance

In the ECIC’s 2026/27 Corporate Plan, Mr Parks Tau, Minister of Trade, Industry and Competition (@the_dtic), highlights how the Corporation is “at the forefront of efforts to establish a fully operational Export-Import Bank of South Africa by 2028. It played a pivotal role in developing the business case that led to Parliament’s approval of sovereign shareholding in @afreximbank. This strategic move will expand access to affordable financing for South African exporters”. In the Plan, the Minister noted how the establishment of an Eximbank will address the liquidity gap in export-related financing in the country, enabling more manufacturers and exporters – particularly SMMEs and Black Industrialists to participate in global trade. “Together, the ECIC and the future Eximbank will offer integrated financing and insurance solutions that enhance the competitiveness of South African exporters, both locally and internationally. Importantly, the Eximbank will also serve a countercyclical role, supporting exporters during periods of economic stress”. The Minister goes on to mention that the ECIC and Afreximbank “have already demonstrated the power of partnership through the $1 billion South Africa–Africa Trade and Investment Promotion Programme (SATIPP), and discussions are underway to launch SATIPP 2.0 to further support trade in the SADC and Sub-Saharan Africa regions”.

ICIEC’s engagement in Nigeria includes Project Gazelle and Project Leopard, which provide innovative sovereign-backed SOE covers supporting NNPC’s financing needs; the USD 465.9M Lagos–Calabar Highway financing, a milestone in sovereign NHSFO cover; and a new strategic MoU with NEXIM Bank to enhance export credit insurance, reinsurance, and capacity-building, underscoring Nigeria’s story of resilience, reform, and renewal with ICIEC as a partner in unlocking its vast potential. 🔗 Read the full Nigeria Country Profile in the Newsletter iciec.isdb.org/wp-content/up… #ICIEC #Nigeria #FDI #CreditInsurance #InvestmentInsurance #CoalitionOfTheWilling #EconomicReform #Africa
