(ECA Watch, Brussels, 29 April 2013) The ECA Watch network has launched its new look and re-furbished website at www.eca-watch.org
Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) continue to be among the largest financiers for some of the most destructive industries in the world. Half of all new greenhouse-gas emitting projects in the developing world have ECA support, and projects that international banks avoid because of human rights or environmental concerns often still manage to attract ECA backing.
The new website explores some of the most urgent concerns about the activities of notoriously secretive ECAs, and provides a one-stop shop for all the latest reports and news on export credits. ECA Watch’s monthly newsletter, What’s New! provides a roundup of the latest headlines direct to subscribers’ mailbox and is also published on the new site.
