FOR EXPORTERS AND BUYERS

Enable exports.
Finance investment.

One transaction, two needs: the exporter wants payment for the delivery. The buyer needs financing over a suitable term. A buyer credit brings both together.

For exporters

Offer financing.
Without becoming the lender.

Add a financing option to your offer. FIB pays the financed portion of the purchase price once the agreed conditions are met – you do not have to wait for the buyer’s later loan instalments.

For buyers

Invest.
With a clear repayment plan.

Finance your purchase of machinery and equipment through FIB and repay the loan over the agreed term. Include the down payment, interest, fees and instalments in your cash-flow planning from the outset.

From small tickets
to complex projects.

Small & Mid Tickets

Smaller orders
need financing too.

We handle buyer credits from EUR 500,000. Established workflows bring together recurring credit, cover and documentation requirements, making export finance practical for smaller contract values.

Large & Complex Deals

More parties.
One coordinated financing plan.

For larger projects, we align payment milestones, disbursement conditions and ECA cover. Exporters and buyers can see which payments are scheduled and what needs to be in place for them to be made.

HOW OUR SPECIALISATION HELPS YOU

Fewer open questions.
Before you sign.

Our approach

Discuss financing before signing

We discuss the down payment, loan term and payment milestones with exporters and buyers early. Both can negotiate supply and financing together.

Plan disbursement and supporting documents together

We align the export contract, loan and ECA cover. The exporter knows the conditions for disbursement; the buyer can plan the payments for the investment.

Consider repayment alongside the investment

We assess the financing need, expected cash flows and available cover. As a buyer, you can factor the agreed instalments into your liquidity planning.

ECA-BACKED. INTERNATIONALLY CONNECTED.

More cover frameworks.
More routes to explore.

The appropriate cover depends in part on export origin and the scope of supply. Hermes cover remains our focus. We also work under EIFO, KUKE, OeKB, SERV and UKEF, assessing which framework may support your transaction.

FIB FRANKFURT INTERNATIONAL BANK AG

Export contract, loan and cover.
Considered together.

As a specialist bank, we consider the supply and the investment together: What is being purchased? When are payments due? What does the cover require? We turn those requirements into financing the exporter and buyer can implement.
