Technology-driven trade and client interaction are nothing new. But increasing investment in digitalisation of fundamental business processes and decision making is driving a new way of looking at trade finance and risk underwriting.

Upon the backdrop of the recent BU meeting of digital specialists, authors for this edition look at successes and challenges of technology transformation across the export credit insurance industry.

Also featuring articles addressing challenges around fraud, addressing climate impact, and the complimentary role of factoring and credit insurance.

Thanks to contributing authors this month: Howard Spira, US EXIM; Kenneth Plum, EKF; Dmitry Pikalov, IA Group; Cagatay Baydar, FCI; Sergio Novis, BNDES; Baldev Bhinder and Shane Sim, Blackstone & Gold
