Etihad Credit Insurance (PJSC) was established by UAE Federal Government and its founders, the governments of Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Ajman. The company started its operations in February 2018. ECI plays a catalyst role in supporting the UAE’s non-oil exports, trade, investments and strategic sectors development, in line with UAE Vision 2021 agenda.

It is tasked to accelerate and sustain national economic diversification as well as support the export and re-export of UAE goods, works, services, and the foreign investments of the UAE businesses through a range of export credit, financing and investment insurance products.

To provide UAE businesses with solutions that meet their growth objectives locally and internationally, ECI builds a comprehensive platform of strategic partnerships across government, insurers, re-insurers, brokers, banks and lenders, regional and international Export Credit Agencies, governments and trade promotion agencies in addition to world organisations for economic development.

Massimo Falcioni, CEO of ECI, said: “ECI is honoured to be affiliated with Berne Union as it can help ECI discover various opportunities geared towards understanding the requirements of the UAE export community and strengthening local businesses in line with the UAE Vision 2021 agenda. This is also a great platform for ECI to participate in global dialogues and to collaborate with other stakeholders for a deeper insight about the insurance industry that will allow us to further boost the growth and development of UAE businesses.”
