Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) and Export Import Banks (EXIMs) play a critical role in supporting and enabling their country’s foreign trade and foreign direct investment (FDI). In fact, together with private market actors, ECAs and EXIMs (of which there are over 85 across the world) they provided approximately USD 2.5 Trillion of payment risk protection to banks, exporters and investors in 2023. This is equivalent to 13% of world cross border trade for goods and services.
ECAs have recently seen their mandates evolve due to geopolitical shifts and the realignment of global economic governance. This evolution also aims to better align with domestic and international efforts in climate change and digital transformation. Reinsurance plays a crucial role in supporting this increased focus on sustainable growth by reducing uncertainty and providing additional risk capital.
