  • Document and contract management related to financial, regulatory, commercial and insurance to ensure the auditability and data integrity of trade processes
  • Use of new technologies — including data analytics, cloud computing, blockchain, machine learning, IoT and biometrics to possibly enhance regulatory and compliance requirements among banks, agencies and trade counterparties, and have a significant impact on efficiency and customer satisfaction

Desired Outcome
