Global Trade Review (GTR) is delighted to announce that the GTR Trade Finance Investor Day will be held in London on November 10, 2026.
This event, taking place for the first time as part of the GTR calendar following its acquisition of the Trade Finance Distribution Initiative (TFDi), will continue the TFDi’s work in establishing trade finance as an investable asset class, bringing together stakeholders from across the trade finance and institutional investment sectors.
With a strong focus on networking and establishing key industry connections, a wide-ranging programme will focus on a broad suite of themes, including improving levels of transparency in trade risk and distribution, increasing levels of automation and enabling originators to attract institutional capital, unlocking the potential of private credit within global trade.

- How is trade finance different to the bond market or liquid funds?
