Banker’s Export Credit Facility (BECF) is an attractively-priced short-term working capital loan facility for exporters– offering both pre and post shipment financing, conveniently accessible through our network of Approved Financial Intermediaries (AFIs) . Whether it is that you need working capital to complete an order, or you have already shipped your goods and are awaiting receipt; EXIM Bank’s affordable financing can help to keep your business going.

Who is eligible?
If you are a Jamaican exporter of locally produced non-traditional goods, you may qualify for EXIM’s easy and competitive financing. Goods that are repackaged for export are not eligible.

It is easy to access.
