In terms of their financial impact on international trade, these agencies are unsurpassed, but rarely do they receive attention in the financial press or broader recognition." "In this book Gianturco uncovers the ECAs - revealing and explaining their history, role, functions, and controversies regarding their missions. Essential reading for business professionals, scholars, researchers, and students involved with international business and economic development."--BOOK JACKET.
