The seminar will address the key challenges and cashflow solutions for exporters , and how to handle the new credit rating mantra.
Global trade is growing at a fast pace and this has brought intensified demand from exporters for trade finance expansion. Credit rating has become the new mantra, and credit insurance is not as widely available as in the past. In these circumstances it is necessary that the Banking industry promote their existing services and also develop attractive new products and services to meet the changing needs of those trading internationally. The IEA have partnered with Ulster Bank to bring you a series of workshops to enable you to review your best options for trading internationally;
