GLOBAL TRADE FINANCE: THE NEW FRONTIER - *new!
EDITED BY IVAN CASTANO
Trade finance has never been more exciting for banks. The credit crisis has changed the face of modern banking, prompting many financial institutions to exit the ‘toxic’ businesses blamed for the financial meltdown and return to more traditional banking markets. Enter trade finance – a fast-growing US$8trn market in which banks help fund more than half of the world's US$15trn of annual trade through a range of loans and diverse financial instruments.
The new Global Trade Finance: The New Frontier report turns a forensic spotlight on growth opportunities in this rapidly growing market. With trade finance becoming so popular, loan margins have soared to a level that makes it a much more profitable enterprise for banks than in the pre-crunch days.
Drawing on the expertise of 18 senior bankers, lawyers and other expert market participants, this 17-chapter report constitutes a one-stop, comprehensive and state-of-the-art guide to this market whether your interest lies in vanilla trade finance or the new frontiers of open account trade finance that provide more innovative services. Examples of the latter include receivables discounting, financial supply chain management (tipped to be the hottest area) and structured trade finance.
