ICISA has published a white paper titled “Supporting the Economic Powerhouse: How Trade Credit Insurance (TCI) Supports SMEs, and How to Build on This for Growth and Prosperity.” The paper highlights the critical role SMEs play in the global economy and discusses TCI’s role in promoting resilience. While the proportion of SME business underwritten can vary significantly from country to country, ICISA notes that SMEs constitute the majority of TCI policyholders in many markets. The paper also discusses the challenges insurers face in covering the SME segment and proposes solutions, including policy recommendations for boosting TCI uptake. These include improving the understanding of TCI among regulators, advancing trade digitalisation, enhancing financial risk management practices among SMEs, and improving regulations currently applied to the use of TCI.
