UK Export Finance (UKEF) is the UK’s export credit agency,


a government department, working alongside the Department for


International Trade. In 2018/19, UKEF provided £6.8 billion in support


for UK exports. 79% of the companies we supported were small and


medium-sized enterprises.


Our agreements with the UK’s largest commercial lenders allow SMEs


to access UKEF-backed fi nancing directly from their bank. We also have


a team of Export Finance Managers based in every region of the UK


providing face-to-face support and guidance.
