History of Non-Payment
Insurance

American Credit Indemnity, established in 1893, and subsequent insures have only covered sellers against buyer non-payment attributable to trade. In 1995 there were only five US trade insurers and over fourteen thousand commercial banks. Commercial banks have leveraged trade credit insurance mainly to de-risk and/or finance their borrowers’ ineligible receivables typically related to concentrations, dating terms and/or foreign trade.

Almost thirty years later, as of 2024, there are over 25 insurers underwriting credit risk. Within the last five to ten years, some of these insurers are now protecting lenders against non-payment/default attributable to a single borrower or portfolio of loans.

Banks have expanded from being a policy beneficiary to being the insured. As an insured, lenders are covering a portion of their attributable credit risk to a single borrower/obligor or a portfolio of loans.
