Export financing
The Austrian Federal Minister of Finance is authorized to accept liabilities for OeKB's borrowing on international capital and financial markets. OeKB usually issues loans via commercial banks to final borrowers (exporters, buyers or banks).
Oesterreichische Kontrollbank AG has been financing exports of goods and services with mainly medium and long-term payment terms (especially capital goods) as well as foreign investments through commercial banks at market financing conditions since 1960.
