G7 Export Credit Agencies: virtual conference

The Heads of G7 Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) met on 15 and 16 December 2020, at a virtual conference hosted by UK Export Finance.

ECA Heads from Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, UK and USA discussed a range of strategic topics, including climate change and clean energy.

The G7 ECA Heads also agreed that a global level playing field in the provision of officially supported export credits was critical, and re-affirmed their full commitment to transparency. The constructive and open discussions then explored the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, and the vital roles ECAs were playing in stimulating the economic recovery.

G7 ECA Heads agreed to reconvene in 2021.
