Foreign trade financing in practice

International business offers growth – but also significant payment and country risks. In this practical workshop, Thuringian companies will learn how to professionally secure their foreign trade transactions while simultaneously strengthening their liquidity.

The focus is on questions such as these:

• You have a potential new customer abroad, but cannot reliably assess the importer's willingness to pay and creditworthiness?
• Do you want to tap into new markets without taking unnecessary risks?
• Do you want to offer your international customers attractive financing options for purchasing your products?
• You have a major international deal in sight, but need support with financing?

As experts, we were able to René Auf der Landwehr from Euler Hermes AG, Alexandra Fleckenstein from the Landesbank Hessen-Thüringen (Helaba) and Stephanie Wenderdel from Landesbank Baden-Württemberg (LBBW).
