Swedish Export Credit Corporation (Sweden)

The Swedish Export Credit Corporation – or SEK, as it is likely better known – was created in 1962 in Stockholm, where it is still located today.

Owned entirely by the Swedish government, it primarily provides financing and finance solutions to major and medium-sized Swedish exporters (such as Volvo), as well as export suppliers and overseas buyers of Swedish goods. To that aim, it loans in over 70 countries, with a strong emphasis on corporate social responsibility and long-term finance; notable projects include street lighting repairs in London, wind turbines in Chile, and office buildings in the United States.
