Uk Export Finance
UK Export Finances approach to Environmental, Social and Human Rights (ESHR) Risk Management
UK Export Finance (UKEF) examines the environmental, social and human rights (ESHR) risks and potential impacts of cases it is asked to support and monitors their ESHR performance in line with our published ESHR Policy. This is to make sure that relevant projects and cases supported by UKEF align with the applicable international ESHR standards, both before we provide our support and throughout the duration of that support. In addition, we collaborate with other export credit agencies and financial institutions regarding ESHR matters to share good practice around implementing proportionate and effective ESHR risk management.
