UK Exports

Debate between Lord De Mauley and Baroness Mobarik

Tuesday 24th January 2017 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Mobarik]

However, UKEF is not complacent. The doubling of its capacity announced by the Chancellor will enable even more UK businesses to export. UKEF’s offering is a key component of the UK’s success as a global trading nation.
