Sustainability
Global trade can be a positive force for job creation and economic development, but the way it currently operates needs to change. Regulations are driving change but are putting new pressures on banks and trade practitioners across a broad range of sustainability challenges. We work with you to understand the regulatory landscape and implement strategic focus on sustainability through your supply chains.
We are leaders globally in understanding key data, key regulations and key decisions in implementing your strategic approach to ESG. We know there is not one solution that will meet stringent reporting requirements and avoid accusations of greenwashing. We know that managing sustainability is complex and unique to you and your supply chain. We work with you to evaluate the best data solutions, establish risks across your supply chains or to work out your capital at risk.
Rebecca Harding can legitimately claim to be a leading voice in defining and promoting sustainable trade finance. She is a member of the International Trade Forfaiting Association’s ESG Committee, and the ICC’s Sustainability Committee Technology pilot and so is at the forefront of sector-led initiatives in ESG. Her ongoing work on ESG regulation is structuring thinking about the need for sustainability audit standards globally.
