The Swiss Export Risk Insurance is an organization founded in 1934 by the federal government to protect jobs and promote exports of Swiss companies.
SERV insures the risks of Swiss exporters in countries where private insurers are not or only selectively active and in countries that pose substantial economic and political risks, particularly for medium- and long-term transactions. Unfortunately, the ERG also insures Swiss exports to controversial dam projects, which may not be environmentally or socially sustainable.
Public Eye is lobbying the ERG to exclude exports that do not contribute to a sustainable and corruption free development that respects human rights.
