How can export finance be simplified?: New TXF podcast released

Region:
Middle East & Africa, Europe
Managing Editor
Making export finance more accessible - a key debate from TXF Venice

TXF's new export finance podcast is back. For this episode, regular contributors Deutsche Bank's global coordinator and head of export finance EMEA, Simon Sayer, TD securities head of structured export finance EMEA, Simon Jones, and GKB Venture's Gabby Buck are joined by Finnvera's CEO and president of the Berne Union, Topi Vesteri.

The podcast includes a discussion looking at how ECAs and banks are judged internally and externally, and how origination works in practice and how it could be improved. Could export finance be simplified in how it is communicated to clients, colleagues, regulators and governments?
