The recent INCOTERMS 2020 (International Commercial Terminologies on the shipment of goods via land, air and sea) took effect globally on January 1, 2020. This impacts on all import-export, bank trade finance, insurance, logistics and shipment transactions.

For those in the banking industry, INCOTERMS determine whether a transaction complies with international trade sanctions and local banking regulations — detecting fraudulent trade transactions beforehand and ensuring that movement of the goods are valid and legitimate.

Don't be left behind! Inviting all importers, exporters, bankers (in-charge of trade finance), freight forwarders and logistics companies, non-life insurers, lawyers, accountants, auditors, custom brokers, business consultants and all those involved in International Trade and Purchasing.
