Political risk insurance can provide financial security for businesses making investments in foreign countries, helping to protect them against monetary losses stemming from government actions. Although political risk insurance (PRI) has been available for several decades, efforts to quantify the value of PRI are new. A recent study by Marsh and S&P Global evaluated the potential benefits of PRI.
In this episode of our Risk in Context podcast, Marsh’s Julie Martin and Stephen Kay and Alexia Ash, director for risk quantification at S&P Global, discuss the findings of the study and how this information can help businesses as they consider their investments in developing countries.
