Trade, Commodities and Export Finance Asia 2010
8th & 9th September 2010

Raffles Hotel, Singapore

Asia is at the centre of the global supply chain for many corporates across the world. Since the global downturn, changes and fluctuations in trade flows have been seen all over the globe. Asia has remained relatively resilient and has weathered the storm well in the global market place. As the global economy treads its recovery path, Asia’s promising prospects undoubtedly provide many opportunities for the commodities, trade and export finance sectors to expand going forward.

This year’s agenda will feature key coverage of the main issues and trends facing the commodities and export finance market. It will focus on transactional flows as well as structured solutions. In addition, the event will also take in many of the hybrid-type trade transactions within structured trade and so prevalent in, and with, many of the markets of Asia. Being held in Singapore, the hub for many trade flows going in and out of Asia, the conference is essential for anyone trading or arranging deals with the markets in the region.

With the ever increasing consumption of raw materials in Asia and the increasing volume of value-added products for export and re-export, the Asian region provides incredible new opportunities for producers, corporates, risk managers, insurers, lawyers, advisors and financiers.

Poll

Will Russia’s recent ban on grain exports result in a significant rise in private risk insurance claims from grain traders unable to fulfil their contracts?

Yes – there will be more claims. The government’s actions allow traders, with PRI cover, to make claims through contract frustration.
8%
No - the majority of Russia’s wheat production, some 70%-80%, is used for domestic consumption so the contracts represent only a small portion of the total wheat market, limiting the amount of potential claims.
23%
No - traders had a week’s notice before the ban allowing them to secure alternative supplies to fulfil contracts stated as optional origin.
23%
Maybe - but claims are likely to be limited to traders dealing in soft wheat whose contracts demand they source wheat only from Russia.
46%
