The Export Import Bank of the United
States (EXIM Bank) pursuant to the Export Import Bank Act of 1945,
as amended (12 USC 635, et seq), facilitates the financing of
exports of U.S. goods and services. By neutralizing the effect of
export credit insurance and guarantees offered by foreign
governments and by absorbing credit risks that the private sector
will not accept, EXIM Bank enables U.S. exporters to compete fairly
in foreign markets on the basis of price and produce. This
collection of information is necessary, pursuant to12 USC Sec. 635
(a) (1), to determine eligibility of the applicant for EXIM Bank
assistance. This form is used by an exporter (or broker acting on
its behalf) in order to obtain approval for coverage of the
repayment risk of export sales. The information received provides
EXIM Bank staff with the information necessary to make a
determination of the eligibility of the applicant and the
creditworthiness of one of the applicant's foreign buyers for EXIM
Bank assistance under its programs.
