JOURNEY

MAKING A

GLOBAL IMPACT

As we embarked on our sustainability journey at EXIM Bank, a key
focus for us was developing a meaningful and impactful approach for all
our stakeholders. This involved a deep understanding of our role as a
Development Financial Institution (DFI). We recognise the importance of
promoting holistic development, responsible financial stewardship, and
contributing to a more sustainable and equitable future. Sustainability
is becoming an integral part of our strategy, aligning perfectly with our
mandate to finance and support exports and imports of goods, services
and overseas projects and investments with emphasis on non-traditional
markets.

In 2023, we focused on strengthening sustainability within our
operations. We directed our efforts on delivering core activities and
initiatives related to four key areas: governance, strategy, awareness
and capacity building, and advocacy. By integrating sustainability
into our daily operations, we aim to achieve several goals; enhance
the resilience of the communities that we serve, promote responsible
business practices among our clients, and contribute meaningfully to
global efforts in addressing environmental challenges.
