How It Works
Step-by-step Guide
The lending bank will contact ECI with general information about the loan it wants to insure. Loans that have already been disbursed are not eligible for insurance.
Once it is determined that the loan can be insured, ECI will prepare an initial, non-binding quotation. Also included will be an overview of the information needed for ECI to make a thorough assessment to provide a binding proposal. The documentation will provide evidence of the relationship between the purchase funded with the loan and future exports by your company and ECI will also include an assessment in regard to green investments and operations.
Once all the information is provided, ECI will conduct a thorough assessment of your export business and the green transaction. At this stage, the underwriter will work with the bank to discuss details of the cover, policy wording, risks, and mitigation approaches. ECI uses accepted international standards and methods for the assessment of the green contribution of the transaction.
Once internal and external approvals are given for the terms and conditions and the bank signs the policy, the loan can be disbursed. ECI will only be involved in case of payment default or indications of payment problems.

The bank will notify ECI as soon as it becomes aware that there may be a potential payment problem. Notification is mandatory 30 days after default on the scheduled due date.
ECI will work together with the bank to agree on the best way to manage recovery. Amicable resolution of payment delays, assistance from a specialized agency, or initiating formal litigation may be used to recover payment.
Once it is determined that not all payments can be recovered, the bank can submit a claim along with evidence of loss and policy compliance.
ECI will assess the claim diligently ensuring transparency and adherence to policy. The claim assessment can take up to one month.
After the assessment is complete, ECI will send details of the calculation for approval and sign-off. The claim will be promptly paid out.
If there are still chances of potential recoveries, ECI will work in collaboration with the bank for additional recovery efforts. Any recoveries will be shared between the bank and ECI as per the policy agreement.
