Board Of Directors
Culture
Financial Highlights
ORGANISATIONAL CHART
Exim Bank is fully owned by the Government of India and is
managed by a Board of Directors with representation from
Government, financial institutions, banks, business community.
The Bank is professionally run with a total staff of 190 who are drawn
from six major streams: commercial and development banking,
engineering, economics, accountancy, computer technology and
business school graduates
ORGANISATIONAL CULTURE

Salient features of the work environment are emphasis on office
automation, an open office system, an independent 'doer's' work
culture, minimization of hierarchical constraints in organisational
functioning, and multi-disciplinary inputs in decision making.

itself in a different mould right from inception without being saddled with a
legacy of outmoded work practices. Some salient features of the work
environment are the emphasis on office automation, an open office system,
an independent "doer's" work culture, minimisation of hierarchical
constraints in organisational functioning, and multi-disciplinary inputs in
decision making. Exim Bank is an officer oriented organisation. Officers
work independently and self-sufficiently in all the activities that their job
entails. A sense of togetherness and common purpose is sought to be
fostered by the Bank's in-house publication Eximius, and the annual staff
get-together. The Eminent Persons Lecture Series brings persons who have
achieved eminence in diverse fields to interact and share their experience
with officers.
Degree Of Emphasis
Exim Bank operates at the frontier of available office automation and
technology. The Bank believes that human resources should primarily be
utilized for activities that require knowledge, skills, analysis and
discretionary choices. An array of state-of-the-art computer hardware,
software, and telecommunications are available to the Bank's personnel.
Members of the staff make use of these facilities to the fullest extent feasible
not only for non-discretionary activities but also as necessary tools for
optimizing their work output both in terms of quantity and quality. The lean
staff strength makes it possible for the Bank to provide each officer with
his/her own personal computer as well as unlimited access to office
automation and technology.

11/42
Multi-disciplinary inputs
The complexity of the Bank's functions requires cross-disciplinary inputs for
effective and correct decision-making. Thus, all important decisions are
taken with the aid of inputs from relevant specialists within the Bank. This
enables a comprehensive micro and macro level assessment of risks and
rewards. Through this process of collegiate decision making, team work and
inter personal skills are deployed to the fullest extent so as to make optimum
use of the Bank's diverse human resources.
Objective of the Young Professionals Programme
The Young Professionals Programme is the entry-point for a career with
Exim Bank. The Bank requires skills relating to various disciplines e.g.
business management, banking, economics, accountancy and engineering.
Prior work experience is neither expected, nor considered necessary. Right
from the very first year, young professionals will be working independently
on challenging assignments. The Young Professionals Programme offers an
exciting and challenging career to those with the capability and desire to
operate at the cutting edge of India's globalisation process.
Long-term career prospects
Except for those positions where highly specialised skills are needed, the
Bank does not normally recruit directly to higher professional positions.
Thus, young professionals who are committed to a long-term career in the
bank, can expect to rise to the upper echelons of the Bank's management in
due course of time. Career growth is determined by performance and merit,
based on an objective and structured system of evaluation. The Bank
8/9/2019 Exim Bank (1)
12/42
anticipates a major expansion and diversification of its activities in the
medium and long run, largely because of the opportunities arising from
India's ongoing globalisation efforts. Therefore, young professionals can
look forward to a fruitful career with the Bank.
Training Programme
Given the complexity of the Bank's operations, as reflected by the many
specialised groups and work-skills, young professionals need to spend time
gaining exposure and knowledge of the various activities and skills utilised
in the Bank. This is especially necessary because efficient decision makingin the Bank requires knowledge of a variety of skills and practices. Working
with various groups, young professionals become fully conversant with all
the critical functions and activities. They are also actively involved in
appropriate assignments entailing individual responsibility.
The Bank is unique in its global and national network of institutional and
professional linkages. The five overseas offices - at Washington D.C.,
Singapore, Budapest, London and Johannesburg - have helped forge
strategic institutional linkages for the Bank with multilateral agencies such
as Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency, World Bank, Asian
Development Bank, African Development Bank, Export Credit Agencies,
Trade and Investment Promotion Agencies abroad. The Bank's extensive
global network, supported by the Indian Missions abroad facilitatesinteraction with such agencies and opens up new opportunities for
knowledge building and upgradation of skills.
8/9/2019 Exim Bank (1)
13/42
Learning opportunities are created for officers by way of participation in
seminars and exhibitions (in India and abroad) sponsored by the Bank, with
a view to preparing them to perform roles / jobs which they may be required
to take up in the future as they go up in the organisational hierarchy, or if the
Bank is venturing into new areas through joint ventures or expansion. State-
of-the-art training in highly specialised areas is furthered by the new
initiatives of the Bank, establishing links with multilateral agencies such as
MIGA, IFC Washington and the World Bank. Special programmes
organised in coordination with these agencies are customised to meet the
specific requirements of the Bank.
Salary
During the training period, young professionals are paid a monthly stipend
of Rs. 15,000/-. Thereafter, upon absorption as Manager, salaries would
correspond to the scale for this cadre. Currently, gross emoluments at the
minimum of the scale amount to about Rs. 17,900/-. "Dearness Allowance,"
which constitutes a component of salaries, changes at quarterly intervals to
reflect movements in the price index. Therefore, actual salaries in the scales
alter periodically.

Perquisites
Apart from the salary, the Bank provides attractive perquisites, the monetary
equivalent of which is considerable, in relation to the salary. A major
perquisite which the Bank endeavours to provide to young professionals is
furnished bachelor accommodation, based on need and subject to
availability. Individual rooms in the Bank's furnished flats with common
kitchen and lounge are allotted to young professionals wherever possible.
Until now, all young professionals joining the Bank have been provided with
accommodation. As regards family accommodation, the Bank can consider
the same subject to availability. Another valuable perquisite is the scheme
for reimbursement of fees for the purpose of acquisition of skills considered
useful to the Bank - for instance, computer skills, foreign languages.

General Guidelines on Exim Lines of credit
Introduction
Exim Bank extends lines of credit to overseas governments/agencies
nominated by them or financial institutions overseas to enable buyers in
those countries to import capital/engineering goods, industrial manufactures
and related services from India on deferred payment terms. This facility
enables importers in those countries to import from India on deferred credit
terms as per the terms and conditions already negotiated between Exim Bank
and the overseas agency. The Indian exporters can obtain payment ofeligible value from Exim Bank against negotiation of shipping documents,
without recourse to them.

Indian Rupees and extended to sovereign governments/agencies nominated
by them or financial institutions. Such governments/agencies/institutions are
the borrowers and Exim Bank the lender. Terms and conditions of different
lines of credit are varying and details in respect of each line of credit can be
obtained from Exim Bank. It would need to be ascertained from time to time
that the lines of credit have come into effect and uncommitted balance is still
available for utilisation. Indian exporters also need to ascertain the quautum

8/9/2019 Exim Bank (1)
24/42
The buyer arranges to obtain allocation of funds under the credit line
from the borrower. The exporter then enters into contract with the
buyer, for the eligible items covered under the line of credit. The
contracts would need to conform to the basic terms and conditions of
the respective credit lines. (Particulars of effective lines of credit are
available separately)
The delivery period stipulated in the contracts should be such that
credit can be drawn from Exim Bank within the terminal disbursement
date stipulated under the respective line of credit agreements. Also, all
contracts should provide for pre-shipment inspection by the buyer or
agent nominated by buyer.
The buyer arranges to comply with procedural formalities as
applicable in his country and then submits the contract to the borrower
for approval. The borrower in turn forwards copies of the contract to
Exim Bank for approval.
Exim Bank advises approval of the contract to the borrower, with
copy to exporter, indicating approval number, eligible contract value,
last date for disbursement, and other conditions subject to which
approval is granted.
The Buyer, on advice from the borrower, establishes an irrevocable
sight letter of credit(L/C). A single L/C is to be opened, covering the
full eligible value of the contract including, freight and/or insurance as
laid down in the contract.
The letter of credit is advised through a bank in India designated by
Exim Bank.
8/9/2019 Exim Bank (1)
25/42
Exporter ships the goods covered under the contract and presents
documents for negotiation to the designated bank. The Bank forwards
negotiated documents to the buyer.
On receipt of clean non-negotiable set of shipment documents along
with the relative invoices, inspection certificate and a certificate that
documents negotiated are as per terms of L/C and without reserve
from the negotiating bank and after having satisfied itself, that all
formalities have been complied with in conformity with the terms of
the Credit Agreement, Exim Bank reimburses the eligible value of
shipment in equivalent rupees at spot exchange rate to the negotiating
bank for payment to the exporter.
Exim Bank debits the borrower's account and arranges to collect
interest and principal receivable on due dates as per the terms of the
line of credit agreement between Exim Bank and the borrower.
It may be noted:
Any bank charges, commission expenses payable in India as also pro-
rata export credit insurance premium and / or interest rate differential
cost, as may be applicable shall be to the account of the exporter. The
exporter is advised to ascertain from EXIM Bank the amount service
fee payable by the exporter, before entering into commercial contract
with the overseas buyer.
Exim Bank will not be liable to pay interest for the period between
dates of negotiation and actual reimbursement from EXIM Bank.
