AFC and Munich Re Share $1 Billion Trade Finance Risk
Original: AFC, Munich Re Agree to Share $1 Billion of Trade Finance Risk
Finance corporation AFC and reinsurance giant Munich Re have agreed a deal to share $1 billion worth of trade finance risk. The arrangement allows Munich Re to take on part of the exposure on AFC's trade-related lending across emerging markets, freeing up the financier's balance sheet to fund more transactions. It highlights the growing role of reinsurance-style partnerships in supporting trade flows in developing economies.
Why now: The deal is newsworthy as a large risk-sharing arrangement involving a major reinsurer and an emerging markets trade financier.
