About ING
The ING WB Structured Export Finance Team has a profound understanding of and experience in arranging risk cover from export credit agencies (ECAs) of the most important exporting countries. All export credit agencies we work with are members of the Berne Union, which is the leading association for export credit and investment insurance worldwide. Members of this union abide by the agreed guidelines and principles set down in the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development to stimulate cross-border cooperation and stable trade. One of our specialties is facilitating financial solutions in countries where long-term borrowing without risk mitigation is difficult or costly. Another key strength is arranging solutions for projects involving investments and/or exports from multiple countries, helped by our local expertise. This multi-sourcing ability puts ING WB among the top in the industry. Additional features of our structured export finance product include the possibility to have full comprehensive risk insurance from well-rated private insurers.
Our team provides financial solutions to help mitigate the political and commercial risks you might face in your cross-border transactions and/or investments. We will look at your individual situation and offer a solution that fits your needs. So, if you are in need of financial expertise in this area, get in touch with us and let us know how we may assist you.

We have spent a lot of time quibbling over taxonomies and criteria, but the export finance industry is now taking sustainability far more seriously: some organisations are even pledging up to $200 billion in sustainability-linked financing by 2025. In a shift from previous years, companies are increasingly looking at the carbon footprint or ‘green’ impact that their investments leave behind. To transform ambitious targets into reality, we have got to rethink how we incorporate sustainability into deal-making. We consider how to make this happen:
- We will need to diversify our sustainability portfolio to meet ambitious targets. Which industries should we be considering outside the renewables space as potentials for sustainable investment? Do the answers lie in real estate and logistics companies looking to build warehouses and properties that meet international standards?
- How can we embed sustainability into financial structures as well as considering the types of projects we will and will not finance? Which sustainability-tied deals have emerged in the last year, and is a KPI-led incentive scheme the only option?
- Some countries, notably Indonesia, are still lacking the necessary frameworks to support ESGs. Has the attitude towards sustainability shifted enough in certain countries to see a significant difference?
- What needs to be done to move away from a world of ‘tick-boxing’ and into a market that takes sustainability seriously?
