International Banking World Tour: Structured export finance seminar in Ivory Coast
This year, the last seminar of the International Banking World Tour was held in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. For the first time, Stephan Cors, Alisa Gögelein and Eloise Biollu of the ODDO BHF International Banking team held the seminar on structured export finance in French in front of 58 participants.
The programme was complemented by the intervention of our guest speaker Alexandre Fontanaud from Ferrostaal Equipment Solutions France S.A.S., who explained how packager bundle imports from various suppliers for the foreign buyer in order to enable ECA financing of the underlying transaction.
Above all, the lively discussions of the participants were inspired by the broad circle of participants working in banks, companies and as consultants, sharing their respective views on upcoming projects.
We are delighted about the positive feedback regarding our International Banking World Tour, taking place in Belarus, Egypt, Nigeria, Uzbekistan, Vietnam and now Ivory Coast.
