About the Qualification
Today, the world of international trade is far more complex than it used to be. Whether you run a business in a familiar environment, perhaps even one that is economically and politically secure and stable, it remains risky and unpredictable.
The complexities and challenges you will face grow significantly when you begin conducting trade across international borders. As the risks escalate, the payment and financing solutions and mechanisms need to be more secure, robust, and flexible.
The Global Trade Certificate (GTC) is an introductory-level certification designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of trade finance products – from letters of credit through to supply chain financing techniques. It’s an ideal programme for professionals wanting to build an understanding of the nuts and bolts of global trade.
