GTR Training Masterclass: The Finance of Commodities in International Trade will return to Singapore on September 5-6, following GTR Asia 2019.

This highly practical course will provide an intensive and interactive analysis of the techniques, challenges, bespoke case studies and assessments together with over 30 legal cases will be used to illustrate and highlight key points. It will address the roles of the parties involved, their responsibilities and obligations and consider the wide spectrum of risks; regulatory, fraud, operational and credit, that need to be considered when financing commodities. It will provide an analysis of the main trade products and assess when and where they are appropriate to use, as well as considering the issue of fraud and money laundering in Trade and Commodity Finance and how to avoid the consequences of being impacted by these.

The course will enable participants to develop an understanding of the most significant areas in the provision of commodity trade finance and in particular the techniques used in the financing of oil. It will explain how international commodity trade is financed and in particular assess how the use of Letters of Indemnity has enabled the enormous growth in oil trading to take place, as well as considering the key principles that need to be adhered to and understood.
