Introduction to Export Finance

Credit and finance is the life and blood of any business whether domestic or
international. It is more important in the case of export transactions due to the
prevalence of novel non-price competitive techniques encountered by exporters in
various nations to enlarge their share of world markets. The selling techniques are
no longer confined to mere quality; price or delivery schedules of the products but
are extended to payment terms offered by exporters. Liberal payment terms usually
score over the competitors not only of capital equipment but also of consumer
goods.

The payment terms however depend upon the availability of finance to exporters in
relation to its quantum, cost and the period at pre-shipment and post-shipment
stage. Production and manufacturing for substantial supplies for exports take time,
in case finance is not available to exporter for production. They will not be in a
position to book large export order if they dont have sufficient financial funds.
Even merchandise exporters require finance for obtaining products from their
suppliers.

This project is an attempt to throw light on the various sources of export finance
available to exporters, the schemes implemented by ECGC and EXIM for export
promotion and the recent developments in the form of tie-EXIM tie-ups, credit
policy announced by RBI in Oct 2001 and TRIMS.

















Objectives of Export finance

There are two main sources of export financing loans- Private lenders and the U.S
Export import bank, government agency. Both private and federal lending have the
same objectives i.e to lend money for exporting operations. But the U.S Export
import bank lends money to cover what private lenders are unable to cover- riskier
loans, for instance, or Government with which private lenders are unable to work.
Whether private or federal, there are two major loan categories: working capital
loans and international trade loans.

To cover commercial & Non-commercial or political risks attendant on granting
credit to a foreign buyer.

To cover natural risks like an earthquake, floods etc.

An exporter may avail financial assistance from any bank, which considers the
ensuing factors:

a) Availability of the funds at the required time to the exporter.
b) Affordability of the cost of funds.
