We are the UK government’s export credit agency.

In 2024-2025, we provided £14.5 billion of financial support to UK exporters. We support businesses in all sectors to export, whether you’re a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) or a large company.

Our Export Finance Managers help UK companies check they are getting the appropriate support and, if not, explore how to bridge any gaps.  A UKEF guarantee to your bank can help you access the working capital you need to export, and our insurance policies may be able to cover you when the private sector can’t.

When it comes to exporting, having a great product or service is only half the story. Putting the right finance and insurance in place can make the difference, helping you to win contracts, fulfil orders and get paid.
