Etihad Credit Insurance posts $2.72bn guarantees, $4.1bn insured exports

Etihad Credit Insurance (ECI) has exceeded AED10bn ($2.72bn) in guarantees since the start of the year, while the value of insured goods and services supported by the company has surpassed AED15bn ($4.1bn), according to CEO Raja Al Mazrouei.

The figures highlight ECI’s expanding role in driving non-oil trade and supporting UAE exporters.

Speaking on the sidelines of Abu Dhabi Finance Week, Al Mazrouei said the organisation has made tangible progress in enabling small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through its “Xport Xponential” export acceleration initiative.

She noted that the programme has delivered more than AED175m ($47.65m) in financing and has connected companies to four overseas markets with export potential exceeding AED4bn ($1.1bn).

She said: “At Etihad Credit Insurance, we continue to support Emirati companies as they expand beyond the country, and we are pleased to have achieved these record figures in guarantees and in the value of insured products.”

Al Mazrouei added that the company has strengthened its technological ecosystem, linking more than 400m corporate data records worldwide to help identify trade risks in markets targeted by UAE exporters.

Looking ahead, she said 2026 is expected to bring additional economic partnerships for the UAE, which will open greater export opportunities in new markets.

She also anticipates increased support for SMEs through the “Xport Xponential” programme. ECI is currently working with “more than 50 partners” within the SME financing ecosystem, with plans to expand this network further in the coming period.
