Your political risk insurance premium may very well be too high or include clauses not relevant to your particular sector or site-location. As underwriters primarily rely on generic country risk information, they are often left with a considerable number of 'unknown factors'. With this intelligence gap, underwriters are more likely to interpret the 'unknown factors' as a potential risk, thereby increasing the premium. Asia Pacific Risk (APR) makes the local and unknown factors clear and verifiable, therefore assessable.

 In addition to evaluating your current political insurance APR can help you develop alternative risk mitigation strategies.  A proactive risk mitigation plan can often be more cost effective and ensure a more comprehensive protection than political risk insurance; particularly soft threats such as reputation damage or failing to align or communicate with local interests.
