Sullivan, Deutsche Bank and ITFA Launch 3rd Edition of "A Guide to Receivables Finance"

Posted by Geoff Wynne on Oct 6, 2021 9:19:48 AM

Together with Deutsche Bank and the International Trade Finance Association (ITFA), I am delighted to announce the publication of the 3rd Edition of "A Guide to Receivables Finance."

In the six years since the publication of the second edition of the Guide, a great deal has happened in the world of receivables financing, not least in the areas of digitalisation, fintech and regulation. With the help of a number of industry experts, this third edition attempts to update the changes that have occurred in law and practice for all those who participate in receivables finance.

Owing to COVID-19, the period from March 2020 to mid-2021 has been challenging for every sector and every business. The need for the digitisation of trade has been moved along a decade in perhaps one tenth of that. Across the receivables finance world we have seen remarkable resilience. Coupled with the seemingly unending uncertainties around Brexit, the changes to our industry have been myriad, and they are not finished yet by any stretch of the imagination.

But it does seem an appropriate time to take stock, and to publish the 3rd edition of this Guide to Receivables Finance. I am immensely grateful to Deutsche Bank and to ITFA for their support in making this Guide happen and to all those who contributed detailed, interesting, and useful chapters.

The Guide will make its debut at the ITFA LIVE 47th Annual Conference being held in Bristol, UK this week. You can view the Guide here.
