​This financial product protects banks and financial institutions from the risk of non-payment on project finance facilities. The lending bank or financial institution obtains an insurance policy from the Saudi EXIM bank, which then compensates the bank or financial institution if the obligor defaults on repayment. Saudi EXIM bank then recovers the amount from the obligor or contractor and shares a portion of the recovered funds with the lending bank or financial institution.
