THE Export Credit Guarantee Corporation (ECGC) says it can assist all exporters, regardless of scale, to access new markets under the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
ECGC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe and a registered short-term insurer.
According to ECGC, its export credit insurance is designed to protect Zimbabwe’s exporters from losses that may arise from a variety of commercial and political risks inherent in all export transactions.
“Traditionally, Zimbabwean exporters have been exporting to countries such as Botswana, South Africa and others within the Sadc region but with the opening up of the African Continental Free Trade Area it means they are now going to be exposed to new markets and the need for export credit insurance cannot be over-emphasised.
