This collaboration is expected to benefit Korea Eximbank’s support for Korean companies by backing their involvement in key sectors such as eco-friendly ships, hydrogen, ammonia plants, renewable energy, electric vehicles (EV) and batteries.
“The partnership between KfW IPEX-Bank and Korea Eximbank holds immense potential. I believe this collaboration will provide valuable support for critical mining projects, renewable energy endeavors, hydrogen infrastructure development and eco-friendly ships, benefiting both Korean and European companies,” Velibor Marjanovic, Member of Management Board of KfW IPEX-Bank, said.
“This MOU with KfW IPEX-Bank, a strong supporter of European decarbonization, high-tech, and infrastructure development, lays a solid foundation for future cooperation. With this agreement in place, Korea Eximbank will actively champion Korean-German partnerships in emerging industries and supply chains, leveraging our extensive global networks to enhance Korean companies’ competitiveness,” Hee-sung Yoon, Korea Eximbank’s Chairman & CEO, commented.
