Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI) has concluded a reinsurance agreement with Export Finance Australia (EFA), aiming to efficiently support exports to third countries and business collaboration by both Japanese and Australian companies.
The signing ceremony took place on 13th March 2026 at NEXI in Tokyo, Japan, between John Hopkins, Managing Director and CEO of EFA, and Atsuo Kuroda, Chairman and CEO of NEXI.
NEXI and EFA have maintained a longstanding cooperative relationship since signing a One-Stop-Shop Reinsurance Agreement in 2005, under EFA’s previous name as the Export Finance and Insurance Corporation (EFIC). In 2024, Quad Export Credit Agencies (Quad ECAs) also concluded a Memorandum of Cooperation to strengthen collaboration in areas such as supply chain resilience, critical and emerging technologies, as well as climate, energy, and Indo-Pacific infrastructure.
The new reinsurance agreement renews the 2005 One-Stop-Shop Reinsurance Agreement and significantly enhances operational convenience in reinsurance practice.
NEXI said it will continue to work in partnership with Export Credit Agencies worldwide to actively promote the overseas business development of Japanese companies.
