U.S. Export-Import Bank's Asian Financial Exposure

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the United States Export-Import Bank's (Eximbank) financial exposure in Asian nations that have experienced financial difficulties linked to the region's recent economic crisis, focusing on the: (1) extent of the Eximbank's financial exposure in Indonesia, South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia and what the Eximbank is doing to manage the exposure; and (2) status of Eximbank's 1998 fiscal year subsidy budget in view of the Asian crisis.
