A lively session bringing together global heads from our partner banks for a fast-paced Oxford-style debate on the defining issues shaping today’s export finance market. Expect strong opinions and controversial arguments around sector and regional priorities, defence finance, sustainability credibility, longer tenors, pricing pressure, and flatlining volumes. 

The debate will tackle the future of ECA banking itself: competition versus collaboration, the rise of Asian lenders, and whether the current export finance model remains fit for an increasingly fragmented, politically charged, and demanding global market.

Please note that the views expressed are those of the individual speakers and not necessarily the institutions they represent. Expect a true tour de force of debating from some of the most senior figures in the industry.

The winning team will be decided by audience vote. 🏆
