Abstract

Year on year international trade bodies have reported on the problem of trade finance access, especially for SMEs. The matter is poised to take on even greater prominence in the post COVID world. For the UK seeking to push ahead with its “Global Britain” policy, this subject too has been given an unprecedented level of attention. This article seeks first to summarise and contextualise some of the legal and regulatory challenges and constraints and then offer up some practical ideas or suggestions for further concept testing. Although the focus is on reform in the UK, the propositions should be relevant to other jurisdictions, despite differences in legal culture and tradition.
