Political Risk Insurance (PRI) provides financial protection to investors, businesses, financial institutions (banks), etc. It is defined as a tool for businesses to mitigate and manage risks arising from the adverse actions or inactions of Governments. As a risk mitigation tool, PRI helps to provide a more stable commercial environment for investments in (developing) countries and to provide better access to finance.
