1 KEY POLITICAL RISK CONSIDERATIONS FOR U.S. COMPANIES APRIL, 2017 Editorial credit: GMEVIPHOTO / Shutterstock.com
2 GENERAL MOTORS EXPROPRIATION IN VENEZUELA: A Sign of a Global Issue for U.S. Investors Amid violent anti-government protests, on April 20, 2017 the Venezuelan government seized a vehicle assembly plant in Valencia belonging to the U.S. s largest car manufacturer, General Motors (GM). The company was forced to cease operations in the country and lay off around 2,700 workers. The incident is the latest in a string of expropriations in Venezuela, as the economy collapses and the government s position weakens. In July 2016, an industrial plant belonging to U.S. consumer care company Kimberly Clark was seized, while in 2013 Superior Energy Services had 2 oil rigs seized by Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA. Not only is the risk of expropriation significantly elevated in Venezuela, compensation is rarely offered. Of 1,284 expropriated companies between 2002 and 2013, only 30% received compensation offers. The Venezuelan domestic context is distinct. With the economy contracting by 13% in 2016, widespread food and medicine shortages, intensifying violent protests, and centralized economic planning, there are few countries where the government has the same desire and motivation to expropriate assets as in Venezuela. However, it is an example that is resonating beyond Latin America and actions against U.S. firms in the country are indicative of the political risks which can face investors globally. It will be easy to dismiss events in Venezuela as an outlier but with growing global trends it would be at your peril. U.S. companies operating internationally must contend with a volatile political risk environment in With conflict risks rising on the Korean peninsula, the outlook for Chinese-U.S. relations is uncertain. A sustained deterioration could disrupt investment flows, while the U.S. s withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership will boost Chinese primacy in Asian trade and investment. At the same time the diplomatic relationship between the U.S. and Russia remains fraught with tension. There are also many lower profile concerns for U.S. investors whether it be South African potential land expropriation, payment flows out of Brazil, new laws and regulations in the Egyptian energy sector to name just a few of the ongoing shifts in risk profile which are unfolding around the globe. Exposure to political risks can shift quickly. Elections, coups, and successions can all lead to political violence and rapid changes in policy direction, elevating the risk of expropriation, contract cancellation, contract alterations, and/or nationalization. The economic situation of a region or country is intertwined with political risks and this has been demonstrated countless of times as an economic situation deteriorates in a country. U.S. firms could be specifically targeted if an incoming government seeks to realign itself to another major power, particularly in Asia. The Trump administration is likely to take a tough stance on governments which expropriate U.S. companies assets, using targeted sanctions against officials involved. This is particularly likely in the GM case. However, strengthening sanctions could make the business environment in high risk countries more difficult for U.S. firms to navigate. Similarly, economic shocks can leave sovereigns unable to meet their payment obligations or force the introduction of capital controls. For example, in April 2017, El Salvador missed a USD 28.8 million interest payment to a local pension fund as a result of congressional deadlock, leading to downgrades from major ratings agencies. This could lead to further defaults on payments due to U.S. firms with contracts in the country. JLT Specialty USA Global Political Risks For U.S. Investors April
3 CASE STUDY 1: Export Embargo in Indonesia In February 2017, U.S. mining firm Freeport-McMoRan declared force majeure, as an export ban on copper concentrate brought production at its Grasberg mine to a standstill and prevented the company from meeting its contractual obligations. By April 2017, the ban had reportedly cost the company USD 1B in lost revenues. CASE STUDY 2: Expropriation in Colombia Early in 2017, the Colombian government liquadiated the Spanish investor s, Gas Natural, interest in Electricaribe. Currently, Gas Natural has filed for arbitration and is demanding more than USD 1B in compensation to cover the loss of their investment. CASE STUDY 3: Currency Controls in Argentina In 2012, U.S. luxury fashion brand Ralph Lauren closed its 3 stores in Argentina due to import limits which disrupted stock from entering the country and currency restrictions which substantially restricted the repatriation of profits. Responding to Political Risks: One of the challenges facing an international business is how to manage a complex range of political risks across a diverse portfolio in today s challenging geopolitical environment. JLT Specialty s Credit, Political, and Security Risks (CPS) division is uniquely placed to provide a comprehensive and bespoke political risk management strategy, through our specialist broking team and analytics service. It is essential for any U.S. company investing overseas to identify and understand the complexity of the risks faced in the foreign territory. Once the risks have been understood and identified then a bespoke risk management plan can be put into place to reduce or remove the risks faced from a country and political perspective. This risk management strategy can include the utilization of Political Risks Insurance. A sometimes commonly held view is that Political Risks Insurance is too expensive and doesn t ultimately cover the risks required. This view may have had some merit in years gone by, but with the evolution and significant growth of the insurance market both in product and capacity this is now a very outdated view and a risky one to maintain. Coverage has never been more readily and easily available and at its broadest point in terms of risks covered. The Political Risks Insurance market can cover the risks to your investments, assets (fixed and mobile), contracts and people. As a general guide, the headline perils usually covered are (noting that each policy is individually crafted to ensure complete coverage for your unique risk profile): JLT Specialty USA Global Political Risks For U.S. Investors April
