EnterpriseSG and CEB to boost financing for Singapore firms' overseas expansion

The initiative will support EnterpriseSG's enterprise financing scheme.

Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG) and Credit Europe Bank N.V. (CEB) signed an agreement to enhance financing access for Singapore companies venturing overseas. 

This financing partnership will initially focus on international trade and commodity financing, with plans to expand to other products.

The agreement was part of EnterpriseSG’s Enterprise Financing Scheme – Foreign-based Financial Institutions (EFS-FFI), which enables Singapore companies to tap new financing sources from selected foreign-based financial institutions when expanding overseas.

The EFS-FFI provides risk-sharing of up to 50% to support lending to Singapore companies from partner foreign-based financial institutions covering a range of financing facilities, including working capital, fixed assets, trade, project, and mergers & acquisitions.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
