Ex-Im Bank in Mexico

En Espanol

Ex-Im Bank's Mission

The Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank) - the official export credit agency of the United States - supports the purchases of U.S. goods and services by creditworthy international buyers that cannot obtain credit through traditional trade and structured finance sources. Ex-Im Bank does not compete with private sector lenders but provides products that fill in the gaps in areas of trade and structured financing. The Bank assumes country and credit risks that the private sector is unable or unwilling to accept, and helps to level the playing field for U.S. exporters by matching the financing that other governments provide to their exporters. In more than 70 years of operation, Ex-Im Bank has supported more than $400 billion of U.S. exports to international markets.
