UK Export Finance
We are the UK’s export credit agency and a government department, working alongside the Department for International Trade as an integral part of its strategy and operations. We work with over 100 private credit insurers and lenders to help UK companies access export finance (the particular class of loans, insurance policies or bank guarantees that enable international trade to take place as easily and securely as possible). We exist to complement not compete with the private sector.

Here we examine the role export finance has to play and key considerations including assessing sustainability and transition criteria.
