Use of Export Insurance as Risk Management for Export Control of Strategic Items

The export control of strategic items(ECSI) is the international export control system for businesses involved in trading items of possible use for military purpose and they are required to abide by its regulation for global peace and security. The significance of ECSI is so great to South Korea who is in special relationship with North Korea, one of the notorious terrorist regimes in the world. The purpose of this study is to review the ECSI with respect to its history, current condition, and its problems and to propose to use export insurance as risk management for ECSI. Problems of current ECSI include limitations in credit survey of foreign importers, extra expenses incurred to domestic business, possibly severe penalty imposed on accused business, delay in claim settlements and so on. These problems and costs can be efficiently managed by export insurance that can provide good information and utilize total risk management for exporters.
