Unlock Financing for EPC Projects with our Support
Are you an EPC contractor handling major international projects? In Germany, Euler Hermes can support you and your clients!
Advantages for you as an EPC contractor by establishing a business presence in Germany
- You benefit from a variety of German subcontractors in almost all industrial sectors.
- You get contact to well-organized associations in different industries and regions (e.g. associations, clubs and institutions according to our page "Useful links"), which can support you with additional expertise and contacts.
- The recruitment of well-trained specialists (e.g. engineering, procurement, etc.) to ensure the operational running of your German entity is simplified.
- You gain better access to German and international banks both in the area of working capital financing and with credit lines for guarantees.
- You enable your customers to obtain attractive long-term financing (ECA financing) that benefits from favorable interest rates and the AAA rating of the Federal Republic of Germany, giving you a competitive advantage over your competitors.
Basic project-related requirements
- Most of the sourcing comes from Germany. The usual requirements for German value creation apply here (at least 51% German value creation), although reinsurance with other ECAs can be taken into account if necessary.
- If the projects are "green" in the sense of the climate strategy, improved conditions apply (among other things, it is possible to insure foreign shares of up to 70% and increase the cover ratio to 98%).
- The contract for the overall project with the customer is concluded by the German entity, but you can also benefit from the advantages of ECG-covered financing without setting up a company in Germany. For the financing of your overall EPC project including order components and contracts from third countries, please contact us to develop a financing solution together.
- Even without setting up a company in Germany, you can benefit from the advantages of financing covered by Export Credit Guarantees. For the financing of your overall EPC project including order components and contracts from third countries, please contact us to jointly develop a financing solution.
