    … without taking on the risk yourself.

    … with attractive credit terms.

Finance your purchase from Denmark

Are you a foreign company looking to buy goods or services? Look to Denmark for strong partners in international trade, manufacturing, and financing. Danish suppliers offer a diverse range of goods and services, and with help from EIFO, these suppliers can also help you finance your purchase. By providing long-term financing to buyers of Danish products and services, we make ends meet for companies, developers, and banks of all sizes and within most sectors. Financing from EIFO can be structured in various ways. It depends on the size of the order, whether there is a bank involved or not, and if so, whether the bank is Danish or international. Contact your Danish supplier and ask them to involve EIFO in the financing. Or read more about financing from EIFO in the brochure.

Use financing as a sales argument

Offer your customer financing – and get a yes to the order. Together with a bank, EIFO can provide financing to your foreign customers. Your customer buys on credit, but you receive payment upon delivery. EIFO can structure financing in several ways, which you can read more about here.

Buyer Credit Guarantees

Guarantees for bank loans to foreign buyers of Danish goods. Credit terms of up to 8–10 years. Typically used for large projects such as infrastructure, hospitals, and factories. The bank carries a minimum of 5% of the risk.

SME Guarantee

Targeted at SMEs. Up to 100% risk coverage for the bank on export orders of up to DKK 25 million. Enables smaller companies to offer long-term credit while still receiving payment upon delivery.

Supplier Credit Guarantees

If you provide the credit yourself, EIFO can insure you against losses due to non-payment, payment restrictions, or political unrest. You may charge interest on the loan.

Project Finance Guarantee

For large projects (e.g. wind farms, solar energy, cement factories), EIFO provides banks with security for their lending. This increases risk appetite and expands export opportunities. EIFO is among the world’s most experienced partners in wind projects.

Export Loans

EIFO can itself provide loans to foreign customers and projects when necessary to mobilize other lenders and secure Danish exports. Minimum credit term: 2 years.

Business requirements

When we finance Danish export transactions, we impose a number of requirements:

  • The customer must be creditworthy

  • The goods/projects must be suitable for long-term financing (minimum 6 months)

  • The transaction must comply with environmental and social standards

  • The export must contribute to economic growth in Denmark
