Introduction

Thank you visiting my blog. I am a professional practitioner in international trade for the past 15 years, and have spent most of this time in advising clients on the appropriate application of the methods of trade payment and the usage of trade instruments, to mitigate payment and performance risk in local and cross border trade

It is said that trade between countries and communities, brings peace and prosperity. This cannot be truer than ever before, where wars and disharmony rampages our world.

It is evident from every diplomatic visit of world leaders, the endeavor to increase, cross border trade, is always on the highest priority.Like in any adventure sport, the fear of the unknown, also persists in cross border trade, hence it is even more important that this knowledge is applied correctly.

In my blog, I will be discussing the very basics of international trade, to assist & facilitate novices and practitioners alike, on the nuances of international trade using different payment methods and trade instruments…

It will be my endeavor for all those already working as trade practitioners, to make this blog as a refresher.
