IDB Trade Finance Seminar

Washington DC, USA
A 2 day Trade Finance workshop was organised by Inter-American Development Bank and delivered by Vincent O’Brien of eBSI on 31 August – 1 September 2009. This was the first formal training delivered by eBSI to IADB who became the fourth multilateral development bank to choose eBSI as a trade finance training provider.

The objective of this trade finance workshop is to provide participants with the required tools to understand and analyse corporate customers trade finance needs so that they can provide trade finance solutions which match the customers needs and in turn generate continuing lines of income for their respective banks.

The workshop was designed to guide the participants through the typical trading cycle identifying the correct trade product for different stages and situations and how to apply them. Participants from the regional offices of the IADB joined the staff at head quarters for this two day training program.

  • review12International Trade can be a difficult subject to teach especially to someone like myself, not having had exams since my leaving cert 16 years ago but because of the expert panel, the fully interactive media and the fact I could work in a time that suited me - that made studying so much easier.

  • testcbroderickThe ITS Accreditation Programme is essential for anyone involved in international trade. The on-line sessions are excellent and allows you to clearly understand each topic with relevant examples and simple explanations. I found the CD Rom format excellent and very detailed and I have indeed referenced them many times regarding daily issues. I also found the Export Market Strategy and Incoterms 2000 particularly helpful. The fact that the programme is eLearning meant that it did not interfere with my work schedules and allowed me to study at my convenience. Most importantly, the professionalism of Vincent and his Team is outstanding...I highly recommend the programme.
