EXPORT FINANCE FEDERATION OF INDIAN EXPORT ORGANISATIONS SOUTHERN REGION, CHENNAI
EXPORT FINANCE “Export or perish” Our imports are more than exports. Hence there is a necessity to encourage exports. Govt. and RBI extend various concessions to boost exports.
EXPORT FINANCE Some of the concessions include: Cheap credit to exporters. Minimum of 12% of net credit should go to exports. Refinance to Banks on eligible portion of export credit outstanding. ECGC guarantee for export credits No margin requirements for advance against export receivables. Flexible approach to export lending and norms of lending. Time norms for disposal of application for export credit. Rejection with the concurrence of next higher authority Bifurcation of WC limits into loan and cc component after excluding export limits. Issue of Gold Card to exporters with good track record.
EXPORT FINANCE Export credit can be broadly classified into Pre-shipment finance and post shipment finance. Pre-shipment finance refers to finance extended to purchase, processing or packing of goods meant for exports. Financial assistance extended after the shipment of exports falls within the scope of post shipment finance.

EXPORT FINANCE Frequently asked questions 1. Why ECGC guarantee when the exporter holds a Policy from ECGC? 2. What is buyer’s limit under the ECGC policy? 3. Some intricacies in the IPSG cover of ECGC 4. LC available at the counters of the opening bank.
EXPORT FINANCE Points of caution in Working Capital Credit proposals Levels of the Current Assets are often projected at higher levels to arrive at higher credit limits Sundry Creditors projected at lower levels Projections made at the time of last sanction and actuals thereagainst are not done / not properly commented upon. In case of Associate concerns engaged in the same activity or otherwise, consolidation of the group accounts on a common date is not insisted upon. This, if done, would facilitate analysis of the inter-unit transactions / holdings.
