The GTR Nordic Region Trade & Export Finance Conference returned to Stockholm on November 13 2018, marking the event’s 11th consecutive year. With exactly 450 delegates in attendance, the conference continues to enjoy close ties to the region’s top trade finance experts, insurers, bankers, ECAs, technology innovators, government bodies and corporates of all sizes.
