Working Capital Guarantee
How Does it Work?
Working Capital Guarantee encourages commercial lenders to make working capital loans by providing them with a 90% loan backing guarantee, which decreases their risk. With Ex-Im Bank our Delegated Authority Lenders - lending partners with whom we have agreements - can expedite your loan process by evaluating your eligibility against our requirements, and offer our guarantee before we transact with the lender. You'll get the loan you need when you need it.
• 90% guarantee on principal and interest for export-related inventory and A/R
• Generally one year or less but can be up to three years. Transaction-specific or revolving.
• Must be fully collateralized:
– 90% adv. Foreign A/R (<180 days)
– 75% adv. Export Inventory (incl. WIP)
Working Capital Guarantee Program
• Exporters may use the guaranteed financing to:
• Purchase finished products for export
• Pay for raw materials, equipment, supplies, labor and overhead to produce goods and/or provide services for export
