Talk:Credit insurance

Untitled

This page is very confusing. It describes Credit Insurance as being insurance on private loans and then goes on to describe in the History section all about Trade Credit Insurance and Life Insurance. These definitions are not "History". If fact what is described as "Trade Credit Insurance" is one of the main definitions of credit insurance. Within the "trade credit insurance" world the word "trade" is never appended. This confusion is further propogated by, for example, the link on the Euler Hermes page linking back to the "credit insurance" page, when by the definitions described in this page it should link to the Trade Credit Insurance page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.6.155.83 (talk) 11:08, 31 January 2007‎

credit insurance providers vs brokerage service providers

I would be surprised to learn that there are 38 credit insurance (aka business credit insurance) providers. I interpret providers to mean the insurance companies that actually underwrite and issue the policies. If anyone knows of company names that are listed as providers that should be listed as brokerage providers, should we move them? For example, I suspect that One Source Risk Management and Funding would be one that is in the wrong category. Glenscheer (talk) 01:19, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

this section is like taking the page on the automobile and putting in a section about car brokers. "Credit insurance is said to be a broker driven business" is about brokers, not insurance. I don't see it as relevant at all This section needs to go.Jackhammer111 (talk) 02:58, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Outdated Information

There is a lot of information in this article that is outdated. Trade credit insurance and political risk insurance has many other insurance carriers in the market than the three mentioned. There is Atradius, Chartis, Coface, Euler, Export Development Canada (for Canadian businesses) EXIM Bank (Export-Import Bank of of the United States for US Businesses) Executive Risk (which is part of Lloyd's), Guarantee Company of North America, QBE Insurance Group, to name a few. These companies are pretty much the companies who insure in North America, but there are several others all over the world. The article doesn't make any mention about political risk coverage, which can be included in any trade credit insurance policy for those companies who export outside of North America. In this day and age with everything that has been happening in Africa, this coverage would be very beneficial.

That part was covered better at Trade credit insurance. I merged this article's worthwhile parts to that page and to Payment protection insurance, leaving this as a disambiguation page. – Fayenatic L (talk) 19:22, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
