Export Finance: Challenges Facing the U.S. Export-Import Bank (Testimony,
11/03/93, GAO/T-GGD-94-46).

As Congress grapples with defining and implementing the federal export
promotion strategy, the role of the U.S. Export-Import Bank is being
examined more closely than ever.  Because the Eximbank is the main
source of federal export credits, particularly in an environment in
which commercial banks are shunning export finance, the Eximbank is a
significant component of the government's export promotion strategy.
This testimony discusses several matters affecting how the Eximbank
helps U.S. exporters.
