CIBA Workshops
This 16-hour workshop provides a practical and structured understanding of trade finance mechanisms used in international trade operations.
It focuses on how global trade transactions are financed, supported, and secured through banking instruments, credit facilities, and structured payment solutions that reduce financial risk for exporters and importers.
The program explains the full trade finance cycle, including pre-shipment and post-shipment financing, working capital solutions, letters of credit, bank guarantees, and risk mitigation tools used by financial institutions in cross-border trade.
