The Inter-American Development Bank is [lending US$27 million](https://www.iadb.org/en/news/news-releases/2017-11-09/chile-to-boost-global-export-services%2C11947.html) to the Chilean Finance Ministry to support export promotion and services, but this does not look like financing

So I would assume that financing comes from private sources (in particular Chile has large private pension systems) and foreign export credit agencies, plus the usual market operations of the Chilean central bank to ensure monetary stability and liquidity in the context of a floating exchange rate significantly affected by the world price of copper
