Foreign Buyer Financing

Hi friends. Most of us would have heard about the term foreign buyer financing. Ever wondered about the complexity of foreign buyer financing? It poses special challenges to exporters because commercial banks may be unwilling to lend large sums of money to foreign buyers, especially to those in developing countries. On the other hand, for the exporters to achieve tremendous sales growth in international sales of high-value capital goods or services, they need medium or long-term financing for extended periods. Now, exporters can break through these hurdles and transform their business opportunities into real cash transactions on delivery and acceptance of goods and services. The Export-Import Bank of the United States offers foreign buyer financing. The Ex-Im bank supports creditworthy foreign buyers by financing them for the purchase of U.S. goods and services. It does not intend to compete with the commercial banks; it only intends to provide products and services to fill gaps in trade financing. Thus, this Ex-Im bank is truly a boon to exporters who are stuck up with reluctant commercial banks.
