Paris Alignment of Export Credit Agencies: the case of Germany (Euler Hermes)

Perspectives Climate Research developed a tailor-made methodology to assess and compare export credit agencies (ECAs) and their governments regarding their alignment with the Paris Agreement. In this case study, this assessment methodology was applied to the German ECA Euler Hermes. As a result of the assessment Euler Hermes was rated as ‘unaligned‘ with the Paris Agreement. The case study also identifies the key gaps regarding the German ECA’s climate action and provides recommendations for improvement. Updated: 11/21
