August 28, 2024, London – To coincide with its site relaunch, Trade Finance Global (TFG) is pleased to announce the formation of its first-ever Editorial Board for trade, treasury and payments.
This initiative reflects TFG’s dedication to maintaining high editorial standards and delivering impactful content to its rapidly growing audience of over 160,000 readers and 7.1 million organic impressions per month.
The Editorial Board is comprised of five industry leaders: Tod Burwell (BAFT), Geoff Wynne (Sullivan), Eleonore Treu (ICC Austria), Catherine Lang-Anderson (A&O Shearman), and Richard Wulff (ICISA).
Each member brings a wealth of experience and expertise in trade finance, treasury, and payments, and will play a critical role in guiding TFG’s editorial direction, given the fast-evolving nature of the industry.
Tod Burwell, President and CEO of the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade (BAFT), said, “I’m delighted to join the editorial board of Trade Finance Global, which has proven to be an increasingly important source of thought leadership and knowledge-sharing across the industry.”
Geoff Wynne, Head of Sullivan & Worcester’s Trade & Export Finance Group said, “I’m very pleased to join TFG’s Editorial Board and congratulate TFG on their initiative. I look forward to working with fellow Board members and to help make sure all developments are covered, in particular from a legal perspective.”
Eleonore Treu, Director for ICC Austria’s (International Chamber of Commerce) Trade Finance Week, said, “Serving on the editorial board of Trade Finance Global is a great privilege to help showcase the direction of key industry conversations and advance the knowledge base of global trade finance instruments.”
Catherine Lang-Anderson, Partner at A&O Shearman (Allen Overy Shearman Sterling LLP) said, “I am honoured to join TFG’s first ever editorial board and looking forward to helping guide TFG’s editorial direction alongside my fellow board members at a time of fast-paced change in our industry.”
Richard Wulff, Executive Director of ICISA (International Credit Insurance & Surety Association) said, “I am honoured to be nominated to the Editorial Board of this important publication. It shows the desire of TFG to be a part of the industries it covers and the openness to address key, current topics. For us, it gives the opportunity to put an even brighter spotlight on the trade credit insurance and surety industry.”
The Editorial Board will convene three times a year to deliberate on TFG’s editorial agenda, content selection, and strategic planning. Changes within trade, treasury, and payments are fast-paced; the Editorial Board is well-positioned to discuss how best to respond to new developments, ensuring that TFG continues to address critical and emerging trends.
Deepesh Patel, Editor-in-Chief of TFG, said, “The establishment of our Editorial Board represents a significant milestone for TFG. By bringing together such a talented and experienced group of industry leaders, we aim to enhance our content, regarding both quality and relevance.”
This move sits within TFG’s broader strategy to solidify its position as a leading informational resource in the trade finance industry. The collective expertise of the Editorial Board will be instrumental in driving the publication’s growth and success.
