Regulation of state support for exports
In line with international rules for officially supported export credits, Eximbanka provides official support for export activities of Slovak companies. One of the key elements of the international regulatory framework is the Arrangement on Officially Supported Export Credits (OECD Arrangement). Within its mandate, Eximbanka actively participates in the process of development and amendment of international rules through OECD Working Groups and EU Working Group.
Bilateral and Multilateral Memberships and Initiative
Collaboration with partners is one of the key pillars for achieving strategic goals of Eximbanka and effectively supporting Slovak exporters in foreign markets. Partnerships and connections with nearly one hundred renowned institutions, banks, trade associations, and government bodies abroad enable Eximbanka to share information more effectively, but more importantly, they form the essential foundation for collaborating on projects involving Slovak exporters. This synergy enables Eximbanka to effectively mitigate risks and contribute to the promotion of Slovak goods and services in international markets.
Within its bilateral and multilateral relationships, Eximbanka is part of various organizations and collaborations, including the Berne Union of Credit and Investment Insurers and Prague Club Committee, which represents a global union of the most significant credit and investment insurers. Additionally, Eximbanka participates in numerous other initiatives.
Portfolio sustainability
When implementing official export support activities, Eximbanka places emphasis on their compliance with the values of social responsibility and long-term sustainability. Each potentially supported transaction is therefore subject to a comprehensive assessment process in terms of potential environmental, social and human rights impacts (Background information on the environmental and human rights impact assessment of exports and investments) in the location of the final destination of the export. Eximbanka’s activities also consistently apply the provisions of the national and international legislative framework for the fight against corruption and bribery (Fight against Corruption and Bribery) in international trade. As a result, every transaction in Eximbanka undergoes a comprehensive risk assessment before potential support is granted.
