Export Finance

Driving global growth through export finance support 

As export finance becomes a vital source of working capital and risk mitigation for key industries such as manufacturing, transportation and infrastructure, we can help you overcome cross-border challenges and create clear strategies for positive results.

We advise a broad range of companies, financial institutions, investment banks, local governments and public authorities on export credit transactions.

Our deep expertise stems from working with many export credit agencies (ECAs) and multilateral agencies on the financing of ships, aircraft, helicopter, satellite, infrastructure (such as schools and hospitals) and other major capital items, including notably SACE, Bpifrance Assurance Export, Credendo, Atradius, Euler Hermes, UKEF, CESCE, ASHRA, Eksfin, EKN, SEK, SERV, K-SURE, KEXIM, CEXIM, Sinosure, EDC and EXIM Bank. Our export finance lawyers also help clients with large-scale project financings and structured financings.

We always look to understand our clients’ strategic priorities, documentation preferences and help them move efficiently towards financial close. Our team has wide-ranging knowledge of geographic and cultural nuances, including macroeconomic and geopolitical influences, ensuring that documents are always tailored to the particular transaction.

We operate across the world in Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and the Americas, providing extensive expertise on financings in many primary and frontier markets.
