Pakistan Single Window (PSW) and Export-Import Bank of Pakistan (Pak EXIM) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to enhance data-driven trade finance and support export growth.<\/p>\n
Under the agreement, Pak EXIM will leverage PSW\u2019s national digital trade infrastructure as a source of verified trade data to support underwriting and risk assessment for its export credit insurance products, export finance schemes administered on behalf of the Government, and other financial services. The integration of real-time trade information with official credit mechanisms is expected to improve risk evaluation, streamline processing, and facilitate greater access to finance for exporters.<\/p>\n
The collaboration aims to address long-standing constraints in trade finance, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which often face challenges in meeting traditional collateral and documentation requirements. By utilizing transaction-level trade data available through PSW, Pak EXIM will be able to adopt more evidence-based credit assessment methodologies.<\/p>\n
Speaking on the occasion, Syed Aftab Haider, CEO of PSW, said \u201cThe partnership reflects the next phase of digital trade reform, where trade facilitation and trade finance ecosystems are increasingly integrated. Leveraging authenticated trade data will help reduce information asymmetry, improve transparency, and support timely access to financial products for exporters.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shahbaz Hussain Syed, President & CEO of Pak EXIM, stated \u201cAs Pakistan\u2019s official export credit agency, Pak EXIM is expanding its institutional partnerships to strengthen support mechanisms for exporters. Access to PSW\u2019s digital trade data platform would enhance analytical capabilities and contribute to informed and efficient decision-making.\u201d<\/p>\n
The MoU marks a step toward aligning trade regulation and trade finance within a coherent digital framework. By reducing reliance on manual processes and enhancing data interoperability, the initiative is expected to contribute to improved transparency, operational efficiency, and resilience across the export value chain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
