exporters, who certify to the eligibility of their exports for EXIM 
support. The completed forms are held by the financial institution 
policy holders, only to be submitted to EXIM in the event of a claim 
filing. A requirement of EXIM's policies is that the insured financial

EXIM to identify the specific details of the export transaction. These 
details are necessary for determining the eligibility of claims for 
approval. EXIM staff and contractors review this information to assist 
in determining that an export transaction, on which a claim for non-
payment has been submitted, meets all of the terms and conditions of 
the insurance coverage.
