    • Global coordination. Receivables insurance placed worldwide in a way that makes sense for our client’s various markets, terms, products, sales strategies and trade-finance requirements. If a client is operating in more than one territory, one ICBA Broker will assume the role of the lead Broker to act in a client’s favour and if necessary override local decisions.

Our connections with foreign insurance companies make it possible to provide service to any international company with business activity in any country.

We consult and provide assistance in administration of the insurance contract, and we are willing to solve all problems. For a policy to be managed effectively in your interests, the relationship your ICBA Broker has with their local underwriters at Board level is crucial.

ICBA Brokers are in regular communication with the local risk underwriters in their territory, talking on a day to day basis to secure the most favourable outcome swiftly.
    • Additional benefits. We represent the client and negotiate the conditions that are favourable to the client, not to the Insurer. Much attention is paid to the quality of credit limits, which is why we persuade the Insurer to review the assumed risk.

Products
  • Trade Credit Insurance
    The deal is done, the goods and services have been delivered. But the money is not yet in the bank, and something’s gone wrong. This is the role for trade credit insurance and the ICBA Baltic brokers.
    Trade Credit Insurance

    Trade credits (buyers’ receivables) usually form a considerable part of the company’s assets, and like any valuable property should be insured. Even the reliable buyers may face hard times to pay their debts, which can end up in huge financial problems for the supplier.

    Trade credit insurance arranged by “Kreditų draudimo brokeris” / ICBA Baltic brokers covers your accounts receivable for such risks, and pays out so your cash flow is not interrupted. Trade credit insurance gives you the ability to trade with confidence, knowing that defaulting customers won’t throw your business into unforeseen turmoil.

    Credit insurance is firstly about the credit limit. The insurance covers the receivables only of those buyers who have been approved with the credit limit. The two parties of the insurance contract, i.e. the Insurer and the Insured both share the risk of the buyer’s insolvency. Usually the Insurer covers 75-90 percent of the loss.

    “Kreditų draudimo brokeris” / ICBA Baltic brokers also act as an early warning signal, helping you make good decisions about which companies to trade with. There’s another bonus. Trade that’s properly insured gives banks the confidence they require to respond to funding requests and negotiate more favorable financing terms.

  • Working Capital Finance
    Working capital finance insurance helps when your company’s bank credit limit has been exhausted by other transactions.
    Working Capital Finance

    We consult small and medium companies (rated according to the number of employees) on finance management issues. We evaluate client’s possibilities and needs for the working capital as well the finance alternatives, act as an intermediary in attracting financial resources for ensuring the efficient working capital, consult on factoring issues and represent the client in the negotiations for factoring conditions.

    During the world’s recent credit crisis, ICBA brokers worked with their clients around the globe so financiers could provide uninterrupted working capital finance to assure the continuation of trade. In such situations, trade credit insurance gives your bank the risk mitigation tool it needs to provide ongoing working capital to keep trade and exports flowing.

  • Debt collection services
    How do you prompt seriously delinquent customers to pay?
    Debt collection services

    Our debt collection services will help you resolve late payment issues, while retaining your trading relationships.

    We provide the pre-legal and legal debt collection, debt writing-off services, consult on companies’ risk assessment, legal and pre-legal debt collection issues, give access to the Lithuanian companies’ database. Skilled and experienced debt collection specialists assure that the faced problems are solved professionally and quickly. We co-operate with lawyers, notaries, and partners abroad. Therefore, we can render a wide-range of services customized to the individual needs of our clients – starting with the monitoring of the debts from the sales moment up to the instigation of the bankruptcy procedure.

  • Political Risk Insurance
    Political decisions can have adverse effects on corporate profitability, and you can plan for and mitigate those risks with your ICBA Baltic broker.
    Political Risk Insurance

    Politics and change go hand in hand. Most of the time those changes don’t affect the flow of business. However, political decisions can have adverse effects on corporate profitability, and you can plan for and mitigate those risks with your “Kreditų draudimo brokeris“ / ICBA Baltic broker.

    Political risks can range from very detrimental, such as widespread destruction due to revolution or war, to those of a more financial nature, such as the creation of laws that suddenly prevent the movement of your trading capital.

    ICBA political risk insurance covers your trade. If an adverse political event occurs, your policy pays out, which gives your business the confidence it needs to expand trade abroad without fear of the unpredictable.
