Al Mansoori emphasised that fulfilling overseas orders requires more than securing contracts, with manufacturers needing sufficient working capital to manage production, delivery and the risks of entering new markets. Through financing and guarantees for eligible overseas buyers, as well as credit lines extended through financial institutions in importing markets, ADEX helps facilitate international demand for UAE-made goods and services.
He also stressed the importance of financial readiness, including clear financial records, cash-flow forecasts and a clear understanding of production capacity. The AED 1 billion financing framework between Emirates Development Bank and ADEX was highlighted as an example of coordinated financing support to help UAE manufacturers fulfil larger contracts and expand into international markets.
