Supplier Credit Guarantee Program
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s export credit guarantee programs help ensure that credit is available to finance commercial exports of U.S. agricultural products, while providing competitive credit terms to buyers. The Supplier Credit Guarantee Program (SCGP) helps exporters offer direct, short-term credit to foreign buyers of U.S. food and agricultural products. Under this program, USDA’s Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) reduces the financial risk to exporters by guaranteeing a large portion of the payments (currently 65%) due from importers under financing arrangements of up to 180 days. The direct credit extended by the exporter to the importer for the purchase of U.S. agricultural products must be secured by a promissory note signed by the importer. USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) administers this program on behalf of the CCC, which issues the credit guarantee. The exporter or the exporter’s bank provides the financing, thus Ukrainian importers can use much more attractive loan rates from US banking institutions.
