| Ex-Im Bank enables U.S. companies — large
and small — to turn export opportunities into real sales that help to
maintain and create U.S. jobs which contribute to a stronger national
economy. Ex-Im Bank does not compete with private
sector lenders but provides export financing products that fill gaps in
trade financing. Ex-Im will assume credit and country risks that the
private sector is unable or unwilling to accept. Ex-Im also helps to level the
playing field for U.S. exporters by matching the financing that other
governments provide to their exporters.
Ex-Im Bank provides working capital
guarantees (pre-export financing); export credit insurance; and loan
guarantees and direct loans (buyer financing). No transaction is too
large or too small.
With more than 70 years of experience,
Ex-Im Bank has supported more than $400 billion of U.S. exports,
primarily to developing markets worldwide.
