The global landscape for trade and trade finance is continuing to evolve rapidly. Erratic market growth and regulatory changes combined with rapid technological development bring both challenges and opportunity: As commodities and financial markets turn increasingly volatile or face dis-intermediation, being able to hedge foreign exchange exposure and having access to sophisticated management solutions are major considerations for organizations looking to optimize their trading activities.
