Export Finance

Helping you bridge the cash flow gap when selling overseas

Exporting is a great way to expand beyond the Irish market and open opportunities to grow your business.

However, choosing to export can also mean facing new challenges. Things like increased shipping times, long payment terms and delayed customer payments can put significant pressure on your cash flow.

Export finance offers a simple solution to these challenges and can help you to better manage relationships with overseas customers and bridge the gap between raising an invoice and getting paid, ultimately giving you a much more stable cashflow and the ability to focus on investing in your business.

What is Export Finance?

Export Finance gives your business faster access to cash tied up in unpaid customer invoices. It’s not a loan, but a way to unlock money already owed by overseas buyers so you can manage cashflow with confidence.
It’s useful for companies trading internationally where long payment terms or late-paying customers can create gaps when covering staff or supplier costs. Export Finance can also support Irish businesses looking to expand into new markets abroad.
