It provides commercially priced finance—such as direct loans, guarantees, and bonds—to support Australian exporters and overseas projects that deliver national benefit when private funding is not available on suitable terms. EFA works alongside banks and investors to help viable transactions proceed, supporting companies from small businesses to large corporates and financing overseas buyers of Australian goods and services.
