Form Title: EIB 10–02 Application for Short-Term Express Credit Insurance Policy.

**SUMMARY :**  The Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank) is requesting an emergency approval forform EIB 10–02, Application for ShortTerm Express Credit Insurance Policy, in order to enhance the identification and classification of small businesses, aswell as minority-, woman-, and veteranowned businesses. The Bank will subsequently proceed with the regular authorization request for this form as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

This collection of information is necessary, pursuant to 12 U.S.C. Sec. 635(a)(1), to determine eligibility of the applicant for Ex-Im Bank assistance.

The Export-Import Bank has made a change to the report to have the applicant provide the number of employees or annual sales volume. That information is needed to determine whether or not they meet the SBA’s definition of a small business. The applicant already provides their name, address and industry code (NAICS). These additional pieces of information will allow Ex-Im Bank to better track the extent to which its support assists U.S. small businesses.

The other change that Ex-Im Bank has made is to require the applicant to indicate whether it is a minority-owned business, women-owned business and/ or veteran-owned business. Although answers to the questions are mandatory, the company may choose any one of the three answers: Yes/No/Decline to Answer. The option of ‘‘Decline to Answer’’ allows a company to consciously decline to answer the specific question should they not wish to provide that information.
