This working paper sets forth the results of an informal survey we took to determine the environmental policies and procedures of selected agencies from other countries that provide export credit or political risk insurance. We researched the web sites of selected foreign agencies that provide political risk insurance and sent requests for information by both e-mail and fax. Most of the agencies have a website, but almost none of them provide any information about their environmental policies.2 A list with the addresses of the main credit insurance agencies can be found on the website of the International Trade Centre (ITC).3 We asked selected agencies through e-mails and faxes to provide us information about their environmental policies.4 The following paper is a summary of the responses.
