KARACHI: The Pakistan Single Window (PSW) and the Export-Import Bank of Pakistan (Pak EXIM) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to strengthen data-driven trade finance and support export growth, said a statement on Thursday.
Under the agreement, Pak EXIM will use the PSW’s national digital trade infrastructure as a source of verified trade data for underwriting and risk assessment across its export credit insurance products, government-administered export finance schemes, and other financial services.
The collaboration is designed to address persistent gaps in trade finance access, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises that struggle with traditional collateral and documentation requirements. Transaction-level trade data available through PSW will enable Pak EXIM to adopt more evidence-based credit assessment methods, streamlining processing and broadening exporter access to finance.
