FY 2024 Major Management Challenges

The Export-Import Bank of the United States (EXIM), Office of Inspector General (OIG) was authorized by Congress in 2002 (P.L. 107-189) amending the Inspector General Act of 1978. OIG commenced operations in August 2007. OIG is headed by an Inspector General who is appointed by the President of the United States with the advice and consent of the United States Senate.

The Inspector General provides independent and objective reviews of EXIM's operations. The Inspector General is required to keep both the Chair and Congress fully and currently informed about the problems and deficiencies relating to the administration of EXIM's programs and operations and the necessity for corrective action.

The Inspector General provides objective information to promote integrity, economy, efficiency and effectiveness in EXIM's management, decision-making, and accountability. OIG seeks to serve as an agent of positive change, focusing on eliminating fraud, waste and abuse and identifying problems and making recommendations for corrective actions to EXIM's management.
