Bus/Financial - Insurance / companies' liability policy | | Dutch term or phrase: gerealiseerde omzet naar [land] | "De jaarlijkse voorschotpremie voor de uitbreiding v/d dekking met [land] bedraagt 15 0/00 over de naar [land] gerealiseerde omzet met een minimum premie behoud van EUR [som]."
I'm not quite sure how to express this blurb accurately. It seems as if it refers to the sales realised due to the fact that the goods are exported to the 'country'. Feedback appreciated. |

The \'naar\' in this context is just another bit of Double Dutch invented by lawyers and insurance agents to confuse poor translators like you and me.

Note; if this is a loss-of-profits policy,
turnover realised in [country]
would be better to cover the fact that investment profits fall into \'realised\' and \'unrealised\' categories which affects the financial statements under the stricter IFRS rules. |

1 hr confidence:   actual revenue per country
Explanation:
"The annual premium required to extend the cover for [country]is 1.5% of the revenue from that country, with a minimum premium of EUR.."
Without knowing the background exactly, this would be my interpretation. I think your interpretation is correct and that they have used the odd construction (de naar [land] gerealiseerde omzet) because they mentally envisage the exports flowing out rather than the money coming in!

Sorry, forget the \'actual\' in the explanation.
