'The treasurer's guide to trade finance' sponsored by RBS and The Association of Corporate Treasurers second edition is now available. It has been comprehensively updated. The introductory chapters - Global View and then trends in Asia and in EMEA (still no chapter on Latin America) have been rewritten. As have the sections on The Role of Trade Finance in Working Capital.

The Country Profile appendices now contain 2011 figures on the economy, currency and exchange controls, etc. and cover 59 countries.

The guide is available from WWCP for US$90 or, from RBS, if you are an RBS customer and ask for one, it will probably be free.

Another essential guide from WWCP. Definitely one for the corporate treasurers' bookshelf.
