The need for more sophisticated instruments, beyond financing, for the facilitation of trade and investments, was becoming ever more necessary. In that context, the Islamic Corporation for the Insurance of Investment and Export Credit (ICIEC) plays the dual role of providing credit and political risk insurance as well as help support the national export credit agencies (ECAs). As in any journey in life, we faced many challenges and obstacles. The most daunting of which was the lack of awareness among the business communities in our member countries of risk mitigation tools and their critical role in oiling the machinery of international trade and investment. Against all odds, we succeeded in putting into place a strong institutional infrastructure: an innovative product suite, organizational processes, procedures and regulations, a multiskilled and diverse professional staff, and a state-of-the-art in-housebuilt insurance management system. We have also created a network of reinsurance support from the private market, ECAs and multilateral institutions. Based on this strong foundation, we have achieved (on a standalone basis) and maintained over the past ten years an Aa3 rating from Moody s, which is one of the strongest in the rating industry. In addition, over the years we have developed extensive and mutually beneficial relations with the international credit and political risk insurance industry. Through its unique Sharia-compliant products and services, and its collaboration with a vibrant and active private sector, ICIEC successfully continued to facilitate the expansion of trade and investment flows among member countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the rest of the world. Along the way, we have been able to support thousands of exporters in our member countries to venture into new markets. We have also worked with individual and corporate investors as well as financiers of projects in member countries. Since inception, ICIEC has insured a volume of business of US$ 36,252 million in trade transactions and US$ 7,505 million in foreign direct investments. The gross premium has registered a record of US$ 232 million. ICIEC is a full member of the Berne Union, the association of the major private, public and multilateral export credit and political risk insurance companies in the world, which brings together 82 providers of political and credit insurance solutions to businesses across the globe. Additionally, ICIEC is a co-founder (along with Dhaman) of the AMAN UNION, which is a forum for Muslim and Arab countries export credit agencies. Having said that, however, I am confident that the future holds achievements that are even more exciting for the Corporation.
