Saudi EXIM Bank and Trafigura Sign Credit Facility Agreement
To connect Saudi producers with global markets
Commenting on the agreement, Dr. Al-Shammari said: “Such credit facilities come as part of our ongoing efforts to expand the global reach of Saudi exports. Our collaboration with Trafigura aligns with Vision 2030 goals and will play a pivotal role in unlocking promising investment and trade opportunities between the Kingdom and countries worldwide. This strategic endeavor will pave the way for driving global economic growth and advancing international trade.”
“We are delighted to have signed this important finance agreement with Saudi EXIM Bank that will further develop our business relationships in the country,” said Mr. Jeremy Weir. “This will enhance the opportunities for Saudi producers of commodities such as copper, gold and downstream products to access global markets. We will facilitate this by harnessing our global resources, in-depth market knowledge and expertise in supply chain logistics.”
Aiming to grow Saudi non-oil exports and enhance their positioning in global markets across diverse sectors, the Saudi EXIM Bank provides financing services, guarantees, and export credit insurance.
