Catching up with the US’ new Trade Finance Advisory Council
Region:
Americas
The recently-elected members of the US’ Trade Finance Advisory Council (TFAC) attended their inaugural meeting last month. The 20 private-sector leaders represent banks, asset managers, peer-to-peer lenders, exporters, and research institutions. TXF's Max Thompson caught up with Ericka Ukrow, executive secretariat of the TFAC at the US Department of Commerce, to find out how the Council plans to increase access to finance for US exporters.
