Content: The Boeing Company and its subsidiaries had more than 143,000 employees working in 50 states as of December 31, 2019. Boeing’s market success plays a key role in supporting high-value aerospace jobs across its supply chain and across the United States. Boeing works with more than 12,000 businesses supporting more than 1 million supplier-related jobs across the United States. These businesses include production suppliers and non-production vendors, as well as subsidiaries of companies to which Boeing made other payments. Export-Import Bank
The U.S. Export-Import Bank, known as Ex-Im, is a government agency that helps American businesses compete in the global economy by offering loans and guarantees to foreign purchasers of U.S. manufactured goods who meet strict lending qualifications. Ex-Im helps Boeing customers around the world secure financing for the purchase of Boeing airplanes and satellites. Fifty-nine other governments have their own version of Ex-Im, including the three governments that finance Airbus sales (France, Germany and the United Kingdom). The Ex-Im Bank was reauthorized for a five-year period with broad, bipartisan support in December 2015, but the Bank still lacks a quorum to approve major transactions like aircraft financing. The Ex-Im Bank is critical to our ability to compete globally and to create and sustain more than 1.5 million U.S. jobs across Boeing and throughout our U.S. supply chain. There are four nominees to the Bank’s Board currently awaiting confirmation in the U.S. Senate.
