The Ghana EXIM Bank evolved as a result of a merger of three government agencies namely the Export Trade, Agricultural and Industrial Development Fund (EDAIF) established in 2002, the Export Finance Company (EFC) established in 1989 and the Eximguaranty Company Limited set up in 1994.
The Ghana Export-Import (GEXIM) Bank is therefore the principal export Finance institution of the Government of Ghana established by The Ghana Export-Import Bank Act 2016 (Act 911).
