Are you still interested in learning more about the complex area of structured trade finance?

Structured Trade Finance (STF) is a highly specialised area of trade finance that has evolved directly from practice. As it grows and becomes more complex in an increasingly risk-based regulatory environment, there is a need for more detailed guidance on the subject.

Foundations of Structured Trade Finance will provide you with exactly this. Written by Dr Oramah — EVP of Afreximbank and a professional who played an important role in the evolution of STF — this report will:

Address the philosophical foundations and risks associated with structured trade finance
Provide step-by-step guidance on how deals can be structured
Outline the scope of coverage outside the confines of commodities
Examine real life case studies and draw out lessons that can be learned from these

STF has proven itself as an effective instrument for attracting trade finance to those regions that receive limited trade finance and which lag behind in trade and economicperformance. Ensure you're aware of the risks associated with it.
