Most PRI providers underwrite investments in SMEs according to normal underwriting procedures, though several (four) Berne Union members have a simplified underwriting process that does not limit the streamlined process to SMEs. For the majority of members, SMEs and large projects face the same noncommercial risks and the scale of the investment matters more than the size of the enterprise. Still, the extent of unmet demand for PRI from SME investors remains unclear. It is also difficult to assess whether foreign investors into SMEs in developing countries use other risk mitigation tools such as self-insurance or engaging an experienced local partner or do not insure at all due to cost, lack of information, or lack of interest.
