ITFA is proud to announce that it is releasing an in-depth guide to Structured Letters of Credit. These are instruments which provide substantial funding to trade in emerging markets, but have often attracted controversy because of a lack of understanding of what they are and what they are seeking to achieve.
The International Trade & Forfaiting Association (ITFA) and Trade Finance Global (TFG) have today launched their international trade finance guide, aimed at clarifying and defining standard definitions for trade finance products, as well as the risks, challenges and opportunities within trade finance.
Mapping the new fintech options to actual needs remains a challenge for many financial institutions, which is why the ITFA Fintech Committee developed the new guide. The guide highlights recent market trends, upcoming technology developments, key innovation ingredients, the ecosystem and describes each provider in a structured way.
ITFA has reviewed its guidelines on the structure and content for CRR compliant non-payment insurance policies, taking into account changes to English insurance law and also reflecting market developments following the implementation of the Insurance Act 2015 and other recent regulatory statements.
ITFA published a guide to accounting and legal issues under IFRS 9 for the trade receivables and supply chain finance industry. This is something that every trade and supply chain finance banker needs to know – ITFA is providing clarity for its members where precious little guidance exists.
ITFA in partnership with BAFT, and drafted by Sullivan & Worcester, has produced the new BAFT/ITFA MPA Legal Opinion. The Legal Opinion covers both the enforceability of the MPA and the manner in which it satisfies the CRR criteria.
