UK Export Finance

Asked by Dame Harriett BaldwinConservativeDepartment for Business and TradeTabled Answered 2 June 2025UIN 53494

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how many applications were received by UK Export Finance in each month of the last five years; and what the value of those applications was.

Answered by Gareth Thomas

It is not possible to provide the information requested other than at disproportionate cost.

Applications are made to UK Export Finance (UKEF) through a variety of channels, including through banks and other financial institutions, and through its network of local Export Finance Managers who are valuable contacts for exporters and businesses with export potential.

Further information about the support that UKEF provides can be found in the Annual Reports and Accounts for each year, which can be found online at: UK Export Finance annual reports and accounts - GOV.UK.

Full details of the businesses supported by UKEF are available online at: UK Export Finance: business supported - GOV.UK.
