Shaping Tomorrow’s Markets: The Future of Trade Finance Through Innovations
摘要
This chapter explores the revolutionary ideas shaping the direction of trade finance, focusing on Regulation Technology (RegTech), hedging instruments, and derivatives. It starts with looking at how these technologies are closing the trade finance gap, correcting information asymmetries, and changing the investing environment. The function of regulation in trade finance is outlined, therefore setting the scene for the development of RegTech from its early days (RegTech 1.0) to the intelligence-driven solutions of today (RegTech 4.0 and beyond). Detailed integration of RegTech into trade finance shows how well it can simplify regulatory compliance using main technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and workflow automation.
