Credeq

This month marks the first anniversary of Credeq Africa | Guarantees and Trade Credit! Here are our reflections on it… Since 1st July 2025, we’ve been busy establishing ourselves as a trusted specialist underwriting business across the continent. But this anniversary reflects more than just a year in business: we’re celebrating the people that have made this possible. Credeq Africa has been built on specialist expertise, trusted partnership, and strong local leadership. It’s these individuals and relationships that continue to drive this growth, and allow us to create value for our clients, brokers, partners and shareholders across the entire Credeq Group. This year is just the start of our commitment to building a specialist business that truly helps our clients grow, securing possibilities and letting them move forward with confidence. Here’s to one year of unlocking Africa’s credit - and many more to come.

🌍 Africa is reshaping the future. Across the continent, connectivity, innovation, and digital transformation are changing how businesses grow, collaborate, and compete on a global stage. We know why. Organisations succeeding in Africa are not treating it as a market to enter. They are treating it as a long-term partner. These stable, enduring relationships are key to reducing uncertainty and enabling progress, helping businesses fully understand local markets and adapt to their realities more quickly than their competitors. And this growth is only going to continue. From renewable energy and infrastructure to technology and regional trade, Africa’s next chapter will be shaped by organisations willing to engage differently. Want to learn more about this? In his latest piece for Africa Day, Helgaard Müller, CEO of Credeq Africa, shares why the organisations succeeding in Africa are the ones building partnerships, adapting to local markets, and recognising the scale of opportunity emerging across the continent.

Last month, we joined partners and colleagues at the International Association of Credit Portfolio Managers (IACPM) Spring Conference in Berlin. A valuable few days with leaders from across Europe and the US, focused on the forces shaping credit portfolio management today — from the macro environment and regulatory change, to the continued growth of private credit. Partnership is what turns credit risk into credit opportunity. Key highlights from Michael Prosser, CFA, Brian Satterthwaite and Martin McConnell included: • Deep dives into the practical application of risk-sharing and mitigation tools, including Synthetic Risk Transfers and credit insurance. • Lively discussions on the rise of private credit, and the opportunity for banks, asset managers and insurers to work together in new ways. • Regulatory updates across the EU and UK, including Basel IV and the continued push for greater transparency and stability. Events like this reinforce the role innovative credit risk solutions play in helping lenders move with confidence. We’re excited for what comes next, and for the opportunity to keep partnering with banks and funds as the market evolves. Learn more about our Credit Risk Insurance solution https://lnkd.in/gzKSKGjA

At Credeq, we see our capacity providers and their reinsurers, as strategic partners.   That is why each year, alongside our insurance partners; Lombard Insurance Company Ltd, Nordic Guarantee Global, and Assetinsure Pty Ltd, we host a Reinsurance Conference. We spend two focused days sharing a detailed view of our business strategy, portfolio performance, and outlook.   This year’s conference in Málaga carried added significance as one of the first under the newly formed Credeq Group. It brought together key representatives from our insurance partners, their reinsurers as well as our underwriting agencies: Credeq Africa, Credeq Europe, and Credeq Australia.   More than an annual update, this conference is an important part of how we build alignment, strengthen confidence, and invest in the long-term partnerships that support our growth.   🤝 Thank you to our reinsurance partners and reinsurance broker, Guy Carpenter, for your time, insights, and continued trust. We value the relationships we have built together and look forward to what comes next.   #Credeq #Reinsurance #Insurance #Partnership #Growth #CreditRisk #Guarantees #TradeCredit
