The Exim Bank said it would provide emergency funding to assist existing clients with outstanding export obligations to the Middle East. The liquidity support of up to $150,000 will be offered to each borrower at an interest rate of 3.99% per year, requiring only a key executive as guarantor. The TNSC and Exim Bank urged exporters to revise their business plans to reduce risks.
