Get the exporting edge

When it comes to exporting, having a great product or service is only half the story. Putting the right finance and insurance in place can give you the exporting edge, helping you to win contracts, fulfil orders and get paid.

You can get finance and insurance to export from the government through UK Export Finance (UKEF), the UK’s export credit agency.

UKEF helps companies:

• Win export contracts by providing attractive financing terms
• Fulfil orders by supporting their working capital
• Make sure they get paid with export insurance

UKEF can support exports for any size of company, across all sectors. Over the past five years, UKEF has provided over £15 billion worth of finance and insurance to help exporters across the UK sell to over 200 countries.

Finding customers outside the UK is the key to growth for many UK firms as they look to take advantage of a global marketplace. On average, firms that start exporting grow by a third in just two years.
