Abstract
The paper examines how selected European export credit agencies finance exports of connectivity, data infrastructure, digital public infrastructure and digital services, and how they balance competitiveness, internationalisation and development effectiveness. It finds a sector in transition: most support goes to connectivity, while digital public infrastructure falls between agency and development finance mandates and digital services are poorly covered. It recommends stronger national coordination, EU-level risk-sharing including local-currency cover, a blended pathway for digital public infrastructure and clearer roles for EU funding instruments.
