In addition to leveraging technology to transform operations, Dookeran encourages business owners to focus on the opportunities that lie ahead, “The toughest times are likely behind you, when everything was closed, and your income was completely halted – that time, hopefully, will not return and now it’s time to look forward. My major piece of advice for MSMEs is don’t just focus on getting back to how things were. If you do that, you’re going to miss out on a lot of opportunities that many other companies are taking advantage of.

With a small capital injection and just two employees, we started beta testing our service in Trinidad and Tobago in 2015. Five years later, we are live and lending in T&T, Barbados, Jamaica, Guyana and St. Lucia.

FAQ

The EXIMBANK is here to support exporters and increase the business sector’s ability to earn foreign exchange, which is much needed in our country. Sometimes people call us the manufacturers’ bank, but the key for us is that you are exporting or you have plans to export. We then try to support exporters to get into new markets and to be able to increase exports and foreign exchange earnings. We do this by providing financial resources, be it credit, trade finance, or even prioritizing foreign exchange allocations, which are sometimes tough to get through the normal banking sector, especially for Micro, Small and Medium sized Enterprises (MSMEs).
