            March 11, 1992                                 146109

            The Honorable Norman Sisisky, Chairman
            The Honorable Larry Combest, Ranking Minority Member
            Subcommittee on Exports, Tax Policy, and Special Problems
            Committee on Small Business
            House of Representatives


            As you requested, we are reviewing the U.S. Export-Import
            Bank's (Eximbank) compliance with the small business set-
            aside provision of the Export-Import Bank Act of 1945, as
            amended.' Since 1986, the Eximbank has been required to
            set aside 10 percent of its aggregate loan, guarantee, and
            insurance budget authority to finance small business
            exports. It is also required to report on these
            activities.

            In calculating and reporting on export financing provided
            to small businesses, the Eximbank includes indirect
            financing--Eximbank financing provided to large exporters
            that employ small business subcontractors. You asked us
            to calculate the amount of export financing the Eximbank
            provides directly to small businesses, excluding amounts
            provided to large exporters that employ small business
            subcontractors.

            Although we have not completed our review, we described
            our preliminary results to members of the Subcommittee
            staff, who asked that we convey these initial findings to
            you as soon as possible. We will issue a report after we
            have completed all audit work. The Eximbank's fiscal year
            1991 data have not yet been published but will be included
            in our report.
