Arising out of the papers presented at the symposium, \u003cem\u003eTrade Finance for the 21st Century\u003c\/em\u003e, this collection brings together the perspectives of scholars and practitioners from around the globe focusing on core themes, such as reform and the future role of the UCP, the impact of technology on letters of credit and other forms of trade finance, and the rise of alternative forms of financing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book covers three key fields of trade finance, starting with the challenges to traditional trade financing by means of documentary credit. These include issues related to contractual enforceability, the use of \"soft clauses\", the doctrine of strict compliance, the fraud exception, the role of the correspondent bank, performance bonds, and conflict of laws problems. The second main area covered by the work is the technological issues and opportunities in trade finance, including electronic bills of exchange, blockchain, and electronically transferable records. The final part of the work considers alternative and complementary trade finance mechanisms such as open account trading, supply-chain financing, the bank payment obligation, and countertrade.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Hare\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198854471\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198854470\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/25\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.93h x 7.04w x 1.11d","brand":"Christopher Hare","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43993445466367,"sku":"9780198854470","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8f892a5e-6b08-4d03-96e9-46f90dfd81d7.jpg?v=1683324377","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/trade-finance-christopher-hare-9780198854470","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
