credit exposure means the loan/advance given by the bank/lending institution. It could mean exposure to a particular client or a particular industry or a particular geography.
credit exposure limit means the limit beyond which the institution won't take further exposure.
Eg: lets say bank has given you loan of Rs 10 lakhs and you have drawn 5 lakhs. So 5 lakh is the exposure and 10 lakh is the limit.
