Export-Import Bank of the United States: The Ex-Im Bank provides export credit support either to U.S. exporters on a short-term basis or to foreign purchasers on a longer-term basis (2 to 10 years). Through loan guarantees and insurance, the agency fosters exports by making working capital available to U.S. exporters. Alternatively, through similar mechanisms plus the extension of direct loans (and, on occasion, grants), Ex-Im Bank provides credit at attractive interest rates to foreign buyers to encourage their purchase of U.S. goods and services. Ex-Im Bank does not compete with commercial lenders, but assumes the risks they cannot accept.
Ex-Im Bank has designed a special Environmental Exports Program that will provide enhanced levels of support for a broad range of environmental exports. The program demonstrates Ex-Im Bank’s resolve to reach out to small and large exporters of environmental products and services. The major features of the program are the following:
A short-term Environmental Export Insurance Policy to provide enhanced short-term, multi-buyer and single-buyer insurance coverage for small environmental exporters. The program features policies that deliver 95 percent commercial coverage and 100 percent political coverage with no deductible.
Enhanced medium- and long-term support for environmental projects, products, and services. These enhancements, which are reflected in Ex-Im Bank’s loan and guarantee programs, include local cost coverage equal to 15 percent of the U.S. contract price, capitalization of interest during construction, and maximum allowable repayment terms permissible under OECD guidelines.
The Private Export Funding Corporation: PEFCO is a consortium of private lenders that acts as a supplemental lender to traditional export financing sources. It works with Ex-Im Bank by using private capital to finance U.S. exports. PEFCO makes loans to public and private borrowers located outside the United States who require medium- and/or long-term financing on purchases of U.S. goods and services through traditional lenders or suppliers. In all cases, the loans made by PEFCO must be covered by the comprehensive guarantee of repayment of principal and interest by Ex-Im Bank.
The Overseas Private Investment Corporation: OPIC finances medium- to long-term investment projects through loan guarantees and direct loans. Direct loans are geared for small businesses or cooperatives and usually range between $2 million and $10 million. Loan guarantees range between $10 million and $100 million. OPIC protects U.S. business activities in emerging markets through its Investment Insurance Programs against 1) currency inconvertibility (the inability to convert profits, debt service, and other investment remittances from local currency to U.S. dollars), 2) expropriation (loss of investment due to expropriation, nationalization, or confiscation by a foreign government), and 3) political instability due to war, revolution, or civil strife. The insurance programs also can be used to cover expanding investments. OPIC also offers the Small Contractor’s Guarantee Program, which assists small business construction and service contractors. Through its investment missions, OPIC promotes U.S. business by bringing groups of U.S. executives to a selected number of countries to meet with host country government officials, local business leaders, and potential joint venture partners. Reverse missions bring foreign government officials and local business leaders to the United States to meet with their counterparts.
U.S. Trade and Development Agency: USTDA is an independent federal agency with over $40 million dedicated to assisting U.S. companies on overseas business opportunities in developing countries and responding to foreign competition. It sponsors feasibility studies, definitional missions, and desk studies for major public and private sector projects in order to promote the use of U.S. goods and services in project implementation. Projects that the agency has listed as priorities include energy, infrastructure, and natural resource development. Funding from the agency usually ranges from $150,000 to $750,00 for public sector projects. TDA Pipeline, its biweekly newsletter, highlights new definitional missions, feasibility study opportunities (also advertised in Commerce Business Daily), USTDA/World Bank project announcements, and upcoming orientation visits and conferences.
U.S. Small Business Administration: SBA has an Export Finance Program that guarantees up to $750,000 for either short- or long-term loans to help small businesses increase their export sales. This program is designed to assist small businesses requiring capital to expand sales or manufacturing for international markets, as well as meet their working capital needs. Loan proceeds may not be used to establish operations overseas.
In addition to these agencies, there are several other bilateral resources that provide financial assistance to U.S. environmental technology and services exporters. These include the following:
Latin America Fund for the Environment: The Fund is administered by the National Association of State Development Agencies. It provides grants to U.S. firms to
facilitate the transfer of environmentally responsible technologies between the United States and Latin America. Each matching grant (not to exceed $10,000) is intended to serve as a catalyst to draw small to medium-sized U.S. companies into Latin American markets. Companies are required to match 50 percent of the total project costs. Contact information: National Association of State Development Agencies, 750 First St., NE, Suite 710, Washington, DC, 20002; Tel: 202-898-1302; Fax: 202-898-1312.
OPIC Allied Capital International Small Business Fund: This is a $20 million equity fund that invests in OPIC-designated countries. Eligible companies are small U.S. businesses seeking risk capital to expand overseas. The preferred investment size is $2 to $5 million. One of the sectors targeted by the Fund is environmental services. Contact information: Allied Capital Corporation, 1666 K St., NW, Washington, DC 20006; Tel: 202-331-1112; Fax: 202-659-2053.
OPIC Global Environmental Emerging Market Funds (GEEMF) I and II: These funds focus primarily on equity investments in natural resource-related sectors related to the development, financing, operating, or supplying of infrastructure in clean energy, clean water, and waste management. Investment size can reach $10 million. Contact information: GEF Management Corp., 1201 New York Ave., NW, Suite 200, Washington, DC 20005; Tel: 202-789-4500; Fax: 202-789-4508.
