Trade

This seminar helps exporters and lenders learn about trade services offered by Ex-Im Bank and other trade-related government agencies. Exporters will learn how to enter new markets, access working capital, find buyers, extend credit and financial support to buyers, protect against nonpayment, and improve their cash flow. Meanwhile, lenders will discover new services they can offer companies selling internationally as well as guaranteed loans to foreign buyers. Thus, lenders can raise profits while minimizing their commercial and political risks.

During these interactive and comprehensive sessions, attendees will learn how Ex-Im Bank:

• Supports working capital financing to fulfill sales orders
• Qualifies lenders to become an Ex-Im Bank delegated authority lender whereby they can process and commit applications at their own speed and obtain generous fees
• Enables U.S. businesses to extend credit to their international buyers and protect against the risks of nonpayment
• Offers Medium-Term financing support for capital equipment exports and services and Long-Term support for projects over $10 million
• Provides special financing products to benefit environmental exports, service exports, lease transactions, and staff support for small, woman-, veteran- and minority-owned businesses

Furthermore, registrants will be instructed on obtaining and completing the Ex-Im Bank applications for support and locating the right professional contact at Ex-Im Bank for prompt counsel
