Host Felix Thompson gives a breakdown of the major stories in trade and trade finance news this week.

A UK lender apologises as glitches and delays hit Covid-19 loans, meanwhile the Japanese export credit agency is criticised for giving out mixed messages on fossil fuel funding. 

In other news, a major liberalisation in Brazil’s agribusiness laws looks set to improve foreign lenders’ collateral options for commodity and trade finance facilities. 

Senior reporter John Basquill also gives an in-depth analysis of a major story from last week, which saw the UAE being criticised for ‘ineffective’ sanctions and money laundering efforts.
