Credendo strengthens support for exporters amid global uncertainty

Credendo remained dedicated to supporting international trade and exporters in 2025. Assessing country, regional and sector risks in a reliable and timely way remains more than ever our top concern to reflect high uncertainties and fast-moving global developments – from rising geopolitical and conflict risks to trade restrictions, shifting supply chains and heightened debt vulnerabilities.

To offer more in-depth information on some of these assessments, we organised a series of webinars, including the recent webinar on global trade tensions. Together with external experts, we analysed the effects of US trade policies in Latin America and Asia, and their impact on global trade, supply chains and the Belgian biopharmaceutical sector.

In this more fragmented world, our role as a reliable partner for both the Belgian economy and international trade became ever more vital. Which is one of the reasons why we launched Credendo Export Finance Solutions. This all-inclusive package provides exporters with a strong link to the Belgian economy, especially SMEs and midcaps, with tailored advice, high-level credit structuring and comprehensible financing solutions to accelerate international growth while limiting risks.

We also continued supporting companies by offering advantageous insurance and investment conditions through our Credendo Green Package, designed to support environmental and social activities.

Furthermore, 2025 marked the merger of Credendo – Short-Term EU Risks and Credendo – Short-Term Non-EU Risks into Credendo – Trade Credit Insurance, a one-stop shop for short-term credit insurance worldwide. Thanks to the other successful merger that led to the creation of Credendo – Guarantees & Speciality Risks in 2021, our positioning and structure meet market demand. Alongside the official Belgian export credit agency, Credendo – Trade Credit Insurance offers customised underwriting for short-term credit risks in advanced as well as emerging and developing markets and Credendo GSR combines three business lines: excess-of-loss and top-up cover, single risk insurance and surety bonds.

As 2026 approaches, we look forward to continuing to support your export ambitions and helping you seize the opportunities ahead. We wish you a prosperous and successful 2026!
