We are now a proud sponsor to the ICC United Kingdom's Corporate Digitalisation Taskforce, an initiative leading the charge in supporting corporates to capture the significant benefits associated with the digitalisation of trade. With the Electronic Trade Documents Act (#ETDA) now in force, our focus is on implementation and scaling up adoption. The formation of the Corporate Digitalisation Taskforce offers a unique opportunity for corporates to get involved, understand the implications for their organisations, and join the movement to digitalise supply chains. This taskforce promotes best practices within the corporate community, facilitates knowledge exchange, provides access to support and guidance, and catalyses adoption to accelerate the journey to the 'tipping point' where digital trade becomes the norm. In collaboration with the Association of Corporate Treasurers, we are excited to bring together over 10 corporate treasurers for our first roundtable meeting on July 2nd. This meeting will address a variety of critical topics including: ▪ Current thinking/status – where is everyone at? ▪ Which trade corridors are most of interest? ▪ Where can trapped cash be unlocked? ▪ Connecting the dots on opportunities such as trade digitalisation, digital assets/tokenisation, ESG, reducing KYC bureaucracy, and digital identities for cross-border trade. ▪ Busting myths about trade finance. ▪ Challenges and opportunities for corporate treasurers. ▪ Scaling the benefits of digitalisation – what are the next steps? Autumn case studies.

As the Global Trade Review (GTR) event in London is about to wrap up in an hour or so, we just have to say that we had an amazing time! It was fantastic to discuss key topics shaping the future of our industry, including global geopolitics and its impact on trade, building robust supply chains, changes in the role of export credit, integrating supply chain finance to unleash its full potential, and, of course, how Mitigram is driving the digitalization of trade finance forward. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the event memorable. We look forward to continuing these conversations and building on the connections we made. See you next time! #Mitigram #GTRUK2024 #TradeFinance #Networking #Innovation #SupplyChain #Fintech #GlobalTradeReview #FinancialInclusion

Very interesting piece from Benoît Steinbach about France's adoption of MLETR, joining Singapore, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi Global Market, and the UK. With Germany and the US soon to follow, enabling digital documents like drafts and bills of lading is a major leap forward. However, global adoption still faces challenges, and establishing a standard framework is crucial. French banks, together with ICC, can play a pivotal role here. Read the full article here:

June 20, our Chief Strategy Officer, Ted Scheiman, will be speaking at the GTR UK - Trade and export finance conference event about the transformative topic: "Could the Electronic Trade Documents Act and digital negotiable instruments Revitalise the Trade Finance Product Suite?" With the adoption of the UK’s Trade Documents Act, digital trade documents now hold the same enforceability as their paper counterparts. This could rejuvenate trade finance products like bills of exchange and promissory notes, whose popularity had declined with the rise of supply chain finance. Ted's session will explore: ▪ The enhanced utility of digital documents, offering speed, ease of creation, and increased security. ▪ How digital tools can help corporates better calculate cash conversion cycles. Identifying and unlocking liquidity levels with digital negotiable instruments (DNIs). ▪ Applying new concepts for suppliers and buyers to manage payments more effectively. Meet us there to discover how digitalization will transform trade finance!
