Event Outline

In trade finance, a set of practices and instruments have evolved, under which banks traditionally assume they have security in the event of default or fraud. As recent events and emerging case law shows, this may not be the case. This seminar explores the lacunae, and implications for the players in the trade finance ecosystem. Topics covered include bills of lading, letters of indemnity, assignments of proceeds of sale, floating charges, trust receipts and equitable interest in the goods.
