Project: Supply of treated wooden poles for electricity transmission

A Kenyan trading company hired to supply treated wooden poles for a rural electricity transmission project in Uganda sought ATI insurance against non-payment. Leveraging on ATI’s insurance cover the Kenyan company was able to successfully supply poles to the engineering firm tasked with implementing the project. This deal supports Uganda’s rural electrification programme, which is expected to significantly raise the low rate of electricity penetration, particularly in the rural areas from the current level of just 10%.

Maximum Sum Insured: $511,000
