(USTDA)
Arlington, VA – Today, the U.S. Trade and
Development Agency announced a record-breaking
return on investment and the highest since its
founding in 1992. USTDA is now generating an
average of $117 in U.S. exports for every
dollar it programs toward advancing
infrastructure projects in emerging markets.
The Agency’s programs have now supported more
than $76 billion in U.S. exports, helping
companies create good-paying jobs, including
small businesses from more than 350 communities
across the United States. In fiscal year 2021
alone, USTDA identified more than $2.3 billion
in U.S. exports to emerging economies as a
result of programming that facilitated
early-stage infrastructure development.
“These results speak to USTDA’s unique
mission and value proposition to U.S. industry
and emerging markets around the world,” said
Enoh T. Ebong, USTDA’s Acting Director.
“Our goal is to set the standard for the
delivery of American foreign assistance, which
we are achieving thanks to USTDA’s talented
staff, our dedicated overseas partners, and the
innovation of U.S. businesses and workers whose
‘Made-in-USA’ solutions are second to
none.”
