ECAs and banks at the time of Covid-19
TXF is joined by Gabby Buck to discuss the impact that Covid-19 is having and will have on export finance. Whilst acknowledging this is a very different environment for everyone, we draw on experiences from the financial crisis, and discuss what ECAs will do to ease pain now, and re-build the global economy in the years to come. ECAs will also need banks, and the discussion looks at what banks should and should not do to navigate a way through this. In both cases, speed in terms of decision-making and execution may be critical.
