On the 14th, the Export-Import Bank of Korea (hereinafter ‘KEXIM’) announced that President Bang visited SIMPAC, a manufacturer of metal forming machines and ferroalloys, in Incheon on the 12th to listen to the difficulties faced by the related industry.
SIMPAC is a leading small and strong company with the largest domestic market share in the metal press machine manufacturing sector, supplying various products to metal processing industries such as automobile manufacturing and aerospace. Last year, as the upstream industries shrank due to COVID-19, causing SIMPAC to suffer from export declines, KEXIM provided 58 billion KRW in policy funds to help overcome COVID-19.
