SGS provides trade risk guarantees covering weight and quality discrepancies as well as trade risks.
As part of this package of guarantee services that reimburse you when specific circumstances prevail, we offer seller’s interest cover (also known as contingency insurance).
Our seller's interest, contingency insurance provides protection if your customer (as the importer) is responsible for insuring against – or at least bearing the risk of – potential damage or loss. As the exporter in these circumstances, you may have no direct control over the level of insurance provided by your trading partner. This could mean that you need to consider your potential liability should the buyer have insufficient insurance cover, or become insolvent before you receive payment.
To minimize your exposure to this potential risk, we offer seller's interest, contingency insurance.
