Sustainable practices
Increasing awareness through financing

• Small and medium-sized enterprises (SME’s) face the greatest hurdles in accessing affordable trade finance and increasing standards
within their business

• Incorporating Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors within the financing of the supply chain ensures that the risks are
understood and queried

• ESG risk factors relevant to a transaction are determined by the product being financed, the country of production and the borrower’s
country of domicile

• Potential to educate borrowers as to risks in their commodity and industry/country, lessening the impact in the future

• Do not immediately dismiss transactions… be considerate of the impacts and highlight potential risks so the appropriate decisioning
can be made
