MEDIUM AND LONG-TERM EXPORT CREDIT
Supplier’s Credit
INTRODUCTION
Medium and Long- term Export Credit is
one of the financing programs that The
Export-Import Bank of the Republic of
China (Eximbank) provides to assist
ROC’s exporter extending supplier’s
credit to foreign buyer in obtaining
medium and long-term loans for the
purchase of machinery, equipment and
capital goods from Taiwan.
Under the program, the exporter, who
serves as the applicant, may get funds
amounting to 85% of the contract value
directly from Eximbank after delivery of
goods. And you, the importer, will be
granted an installment facility based on
competitive interest rate, only if you
make 15% of down payment before shipment
and provide guarantee for repayment
issued by the bank acceptable to
Eximbank.
Aiming at creating a win-win situation
