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.
We are pleased to be partnering with BCR Publishing at the 6th annual Supply Chain Finance Summit. This is an important opportunity to learn about the latest trends, ideas and developments transforming working capital and supply chain management. This online event will take place between 26-27 January 2021.
The ITFA Fintech Committee is delighted to invite you to an educational webinar on 19 January on Hybrid Blockchain. The session will start at 12:00 GMT / 13:00 CET / 20:00 SGT / 07:00 EST.
To get the New Year off to a positive start, ITFA has partnered with the International Chamber of Commerce to commission research to make the case for digitising documents of title (Bills of Lading, Bills of Exchange and Promissory Notes) ahead of a prospective reform of UK law in 2021/2022. We would greatly appreciate it if you would spare 10 minutes or so of your time to complete the questionnaire which is a key part of this research.
It was with great pride and excitement that during ITFA’s virtual AGM held on 1 December 2020, Duarte Pedreira – Chair of ITFA Emerging Leader Committee, announced the ITFA Emerging Leader of the Year 2020 Award. Five projects had been shortlisted…..and the winner is…..Ms Didem Erdogan. We wish to extend our congratulations to Didem for […]
