The Portland Trust is committed to promoting peace and stability between Palestinians and Israelis through economic development.

Political Risk Insurance

The Portland Trust is advising the Center for American Progress, together with Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, the Trio Foundation, International Capital Strategies and Aon on how to design a political risk insurance product. If available, this would allow companies to trade with and take advantage of commercially attractive investment opportunities in the Gaza Strip/West Bank while minimizing the threat of specific political risks unique to the region.
