Trade insurance is common known as credit insurance. These types of policies are purchased by private businesses who wish to insure their assets and accounts receivable from extended credit risks such as default, insolvency, bankruptcy, and the like. Private insurance agencies and export credit agencies offer these policies, which are a subtype of property and casualty insurance. Political risk insurance also falls into this category and insures businesses against non-payment by foreign buyers due to currency problems, political unrest and other unforeseen international situations. Trade insurance also helps cover longer term trade financing.

If you have filed bankruptcy because you cannot afford to pay your debts, a lender will not loan you money to purchase a house and it just doesn't make sense. You cannot continue to acquire assets while your assets are frozen and in the possession of the trustee in bankruptcy in a bankruptcy proceeding.
When you complete your bankruptcy schedules you are swearing, under oath, that everything in them is true and accurate. The Trustee does have the ability to hire an appraiser to value your assets. If the Trustee suspsects you're hiding assets, they can hire investigators to verify, but most of the time this does not happen. Hiding assets is bankruptcy fraud and could land you in jail and fined if you're caught at it.
