Trade Credit Finance, Risk and<br />
Insurance<br />
LONDON<br />
In a world of ever-greater commerce and wider,<br />
faster communication, the landscape of traditional<br />
trade finance is experiencing disruption from<br />
a number of areas which have the potential to<br />
transform the industry permanently:<br />
• Top-down: Regulation and globalisation are<br />
driving a seachange in the capacity, risk appetite<br />
and margins for financial institutions, from global<br />
banks to insurance companies<br />
• Bottom-up: Entrepreneurial fintech and openaccount<br />
trading are also shifting the terms on<br />
which companies engage with their buyers and<br />
blurring the line between credit and finance<br />
IBC’s Trade Credit will bring together the worlds of:<br />
• Asset-backed & receivables finance<br />
• Credit governance & cash management<br />
• Risk and trade credit insurance<br />
…to explore how the way in which corporates are<br />
financing and managing risk with their buyers and<br />
suppliers is evolving and the major macro-factors<br />
changing the trade landscape.<br />
