President Obama speaks at the India-US Business Summit in New Delhi, India

Key quote:
Today, I’m proud to announce additional steps -- a series of U.S. initiatives that will generate more than $4 billion in trade and investment with India and support thousands of jobs in both of our countries.  Specifically, over the next two years, our Export-Import Bank will commit up to $1 billion in financing to support “Made-in-America” exports to India.  (Applause.)  And OPIC will support lending to small and medium businesses across India that we anticipate will ultimately result in more than $1 billion in loans in underserved rural and urban markets.  And our U.S. Trade and Development Agency will aim to leverage nearly $2 billion in investments in renewable energy in India.
