Abstract:
Coinciding with the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency's (MIGA) twentieth anniversary, "Investing with Confidence: Understanding Political Risk Management in the 21st Century" examines key political risk issues including claims and arbitration, perspectives on pricing from the private, public and multilateral providers, as well as exploring new frontiers in sovereign wealth funds and Islamic finance. These topics are particularly relevant for today's uncertain markets, and provide important analysis and thinking from key practioners and clients. Political risk insurance is critical to maintaining flows of foreign direct investment into developing markets; this volume offers valuable insights for practitioners and investors alike.
