πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡¦ Saudi EXIM Bank reports major growth in export financing during Q1 2026

Saudi Export-Import Bank (Saudi EXIM) announced that it provided SR13.23 billion ($3.52 billion) in credit facilities during the first quarter of 2026, marking a 20.8% increase compared to the same period last year.

The strong performance reflects Saudi Arabia’s continued push to expand non-oil exports and strengthen economic diversification under Vision 2030.

Key highlights:
β€’ Total credit facilities reached SR13.23 billion ($3.52bn)
β€’ Export financing disbursements totaled SR4.33 billion
β€’ Export credit insurance coverage rose to SR8.90 billion
β€’ Export insurance growth surged 33.9% year-on-year
β€’ Saudi EXIM’s cumulative credit support since launch reached SR129.5 billion

Saudi EXIM CEO Saad Al-Khalb said the results demonstrate β€œcontinued growth momentum” in supporting Saudi exporters and helping local companies expand into international markets.

The bank says it will continue offering integrated financing and risk-management solutions aimed at boosting the competitiveness of Saudi products globally and accelerating non-oil economic growth.

The development comes as Saudi Arabia increases investment in manufacturing, logistics, technology, and industrial exports to reduce dependence on oil revenues.
