Overview
The Business at OECD Export Credit Expert Group advises the OECD on how to maintain the practicability and efficiency of official export credit support as a tool for export promotion. The priority is to avoid rules that unfairly disadvantage OECD exporters against competitors from emerging economies. The Expert Group engages with OECD on any export credit developments of relevance to business (outreach, rail sector, ship sector funding, sustainable lending etc.).
Business Engagement At OECD
The OECD sets terms and conditions for the use of export credit support in member countries. Through its fact–based analysis, the OECD helps policymakers assess the options, understand the new dynamics of world trade, identify new opportunities, and devise approaches to negotiations that can lead to a new era of trade and investment.
The Export Credit Expert Force contributes to the work of the following OECD bodies:
