The Working Capital Forum invites you to their event
About this event
Trade finance is evolving at a faster pace than ever before as paper is - finally - being pushed out of the process. With 90% of world trade dependent on finance, how can we make the process faster, safer and more transparent?
In this special Working Capital Forum event, we speak to Josef Huber, Team Lead Group Treasury at Brückner Group, and Angela Koll at Commerzbank to understand how they have digitised trade finance, increasing speed and reducing risk and complexity.
We’ll also get the views of Accenture and Marco Polo in a debate on what the future holds for trade finance.
What we’ll cover
Join us for 45 minutes of compelling debate that will point the way to the future of trade finance for corporate treasurers, procurement leaders and their banks.
