TradeFlow Capital Management expands commodity trade support in Latin America

SINGAPORE, Sept. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — TradeFlow Capital Management will provide increased commodity trade support for businesses in Latin America by leveraging its innovative non-lending and non-credit based instruments. By empowering small businesses with the right level of financial support to execute import/export trades in bulk commodities, TradeFlow Capital will tackle the growing trade finance gap in Latin America and advance the objectives of the International Chamber of Commerce’s (ICC) Trade Now campaign.

During the World Trade Organization’s 2021 Global Trade & Blockchain Forum, ICC Secretary General John W.H. Denton AO announced the participation of TradeFlow Capital as part of ICC’s Trade Now campaign to improve SME access to short-term liquidity to survive the ongoing economic crisis and thrive in the post-pandemic future.

“ICC is delighted to launch this partnership with TradeFlow Capital to unlock liquidity for SMEs and keep the global economy moving forward. We are confident that our partnership with Tradeflow Capital and other initiatives under our ICC Trade Now campaign will create new, tangible opportunities for SMEs everywhere.” said ICC Secretary General John W.H. Denton AO. 

“We have been active in Latin America since 2019 and are well-positioned to expand our services to the Commodity Trade industry there, and in particular to SMEs, based on our extensive experience in Africa. With more than 45% of SMEs having their requests for trade finance rejected with no access to alternative sources of funding, TradeFlow is pleased to support SMEs in particular through the ICC Trade Now campaign to enable trade by SMEs otherwise ineligible for traditional forms of lending in Latin America,” said Dr Tom James, CEO and CIO of TradeFlow.

ICC TradeFlow Capital is one of a diverse range of solutions offered through ICC Trade Now to accelerate the provision of trade finance to SMEs. In the coming months, ICC will host a series of events for chamber of commerce leaders and other stakeholders to help find the liquidity and mechanisms needed to bridge the trade finance gap.
