1)Discounting bills of exchange: This is where exporter’s bank buys the bill before it is due and credits the value of the bills after a discount charge to company’s account

2)Export factoring:This could be considered where exporter pays for the specialist expertise of the factor in order to reduce bad debts and the amount of investment in foreign account receivable

3)Counter trade: It is a mean of financing trade in which goods are exchanged for other goods

4)Export credit insurance :Is insurance against the risk of non payment by foreign customers for export debts
