Export Financing Made Easy
At FIB, we offer fast and simple buyer credit solutions that do not impact your existing credit lines. Unlock your potential for global sales with our secure financing options.
Our perspective
Many international transactions do not stall because of the product. They stall because financing is addressed too late, established payment terms are not questioned, or ECA cover is not utilised.
Often, established payment terms appear attractive from the seller’s perspective - yet they can represent a barrier for the buyer.
The conclusion is straightforward:
The right financing needs to be addressed early, so that it enables cross-border business and supports successfull investment.
