[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Haeyoung] Korea Trade Insurance Corporation (K-SURE) announced on the 17th that it will open 4.8 million overseas buyer credit information records for free to support small and medium-sized export companies in pioneering overseas markets. This measure aims to assist export companies facing difficulties in expanding overseas due to a lack of information about buyers, as overseas travel has been restricted and non-face-to-face transactions have increased amid the COVID-19 pandemic.


To this end, K-SURE has expanded its existing buyer data of 800,000 records by an additional 4 million and plans to sequentially disclose them through the comprehensive overseas credit information platform 'K-SURE Overseas Credit Information Research Center' by the end of the year.



A K-SURE official stated, "Anyone can search credit information at the Research Center," adding, "If additional information is needed, there is also a method to separately apply for the paid service called ‘Overseas Company Credit Investigation Service.’"
