Wearing sustainability in export finance, the latest TXF podcast

CEO

TXF’s first podcast of 2019 focuses on sustainability in export finance, as the community looks for commercial opportunities as the market steers away from traditional Oil & Gas and Power sectors.

TXF spoke with Paul Richards, global head of export finance at ANZ, and Chris Mitman, founder and head export and agency finance at Investec, about the progress of the ICC Banking Commission Export Finance Committee’s Sustainability Working Group. The initiative is looking to engage not only with banks but also corporates, ECAs and institutional investors. In addition, TXF examines the latest movements within the OECD, and where sustainability fits into the eroding 'gentlemens' club' that is the OECD consensus.

If you have any ideas for future podcasts, or questions you would like to ask our panellists, please email me with your suggestions (dan.sheriff@txfmedia.com).
