The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes such as proteolytic enzymes which are responsible for the digestion of proteins, lipases which digest fat and amylases which digest dietary carbohydrates.
In addition to the proteases, lipase and amylase, the pancreas produces a host of other digestive enzymes, including ribonuclease, deoxyribonuclease, gelatinase and elastase.
Besides digestive enzymes, the pancreas is also responsible for the production and secretion of the hormones insulin and glucagon to regulate blood sugar.
The pancrease has both endocrine and exocrine functions/secretions. It produces four hormones important in blood sugar regulation; insulin, glucagon, somatastatin and pancreatic polypeptide. The exocrine cells secrete digestive enzymes consiting of amylase, lipase, and proteases (trypsin and chymotrypsin) as well as as bicarbonate.
In addition to the major enzymes the pacrease secretes phospholipase, colipase,elastase, ribonuclease, deoxyribonuclease, gelatinase and others.
Digestive juices that contain carbohydrase, protease such as pepsin, trypsin and lipases are secreted by the exocrine portion of the pancreas.

The pancreas excretes insulin
Yes, insulin is secreted by the pancreas. This secretion is part of the endocrine function of the pancreas.
The duodenum. The proximal portion of the small intestine.
