Managing short- to long-term transactions, political risk and highly concentrated risks from large contracts and structured deals on a global scale is becoming more complex.
For multinationals, financial institutions, export credit agencies and multilaterals, Allianz Trade offers a variety of bespoke solutions designed to manage and mitigate risks.
