Description

While Aastha and Scott are on their much-deserved summer breaks, Tim Phillips speaks to Naresh Aggarwal (Associate Director Policy & Technical at the Association of Corporate Treasurers) and Rowan Austin (Head of Trade Finance Origination & Advisory at NatWest) in this special episode. 

Both treasury and trade finance functions are on the front line of balancing risk management and growth. Get it wrong and you're facing funding shortfalls, regulatory breaches, delayed shipments and unexpected losses. So, how do we get it right? And what risks should we be looking ahead to in the near to medium-term.

Our guests share their views, as well as make some predictions for what businesses might be overlooking.
