9 8 Role of Exim Banks Exim Banks playing a vital role in promoting international trade Exim Banks support their countries exports through a variety of financing programmes. Help exporters to meet global competition effectively and ensure that they do not lose out due to uncompetitive financing packages. Exporters from AAA rated OECD countries are backed by their Exim Banks with very attractive credit packages while bidding for large global contracts. Exim Banks in the developing world are unable to match such credit packages as their cost of funds are much higher compared to their counterparts in the OECD block.
10 9 The Asian Exim Banks Forum Creating an Institutional Mechanism for Regional Cooperation Global trade and investment flows in recent years have witnessed the increasing manifestation of emerging countries from Asia as important drivers of growth. The challenge How to capitalise on globalisation by designing an institutional mechanism, which ensures that a country can seize new opportunities created by globalisation. The Asian Exim Banks Forum was initiated by Export-Import Bank of India (Exim India) in 1996 for enhancing regional cooperation & forging a stronger link among member institutions. First meeting of Asian Exim Banks was held in India, which led to the formation of the Asian Exim Banks Forum.
11 10 The Asian Exim Banks Forum Marking a Decade of Enduring Cooperation Cooperation among Exim Banks is vital for successful completion of an international project. While Exim Banks are considered as competitors, considering that they support their respective national exports, the objective of this Forum is to collaborate while competing through enhanced economic cooperation among member institutions. Every year, the Exim Banks meet at the CEO level in a different member country by rotation. Members of the Forum include Exim Banks from Australia, China, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand (all founding members), Indonesia and Philippines (who joined subsequently), in addition to Exim India. Asian Development Bank is a permanent invitee since There are other invitees from similar institutions who attend as observers.
12 11 The Asian Exim Banks Forum Endeavor is to Promote Intra-regional Trade & Investment The Annual Meetings serve as a forum for discussing a wide range of issues focused on fostering common understanding as well as exchanging and sharing information. First two meetings took place in Bangalore and Mumbai, India, both in 1996, hosted by Exim India. The discussions focused on formalising an annual meeting and developing a common agenda. Specific topics covered at each meeting were decided in advance and reviewed during the time leading up to the meeting. Substantial progress made with the support and active participation of the member Exim Banks. Provides an opportunity for cooperation in areas that transcend trade and investment, such as social sectors capacity building and governance.
13 12 The Asian Exim Banks Forum from sharing experiences and knowledge building At the meeting in Bangkok (2000), member institutions signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). The main pillars of the MOU the establishment of bilateral L/C confirmation. The meeting in Kuala Lumpur (2002) witnessed signing of a Multilateral L/C Confirmation Facility Agreement by participating Institutions (on voluntary basis). The meeting also marked the evolution of a concept for establishment of a regional trade refinance/reinsurance mechanism by Exim India, in view of inadequate availability of export finance.
14 13 The Asian Exim Banks Forum to actually implementing mechanisms for facilitating trade & investment The meeting in Manila (2003) marked the initiation of the Bilateral L/C Confirmation Facility Arrangement with the signing of the facility agreements by Exim India and Exim Malaysia Exim India and Exim Thailand Exim Malaysia and Exim Korea At the meeting in Beijing (2004), establishment of a regional export credit agency for Asia to facilitate credit enhancement and increased liquidity to weaker economies in the region was discussed.
