Status Report from the ICC Global Banking Commission Meeting in London
Representatives from ICC Norway’s Banking Commission have been in London this week for the ICC Global Banking Commission Meeting.
The Norwegian Commission was represented by the Chair, Camilla Stave Svendsen, and Øyvind Gåseide, both from DNB, as well as Annie Sebergsen from Handelsbanken. In London, they were joined by trade finance professionals and experts from around the world.
Over three days, the programme has covered a wide range of issues currently shaping banking and international trade, from practical cases, technical briefings and legal developments to supply chain finance, the latest SWIFT release and broader strategic discussions.
For the Norwegian delegation, the meeting is an important opportunity to gain first-hand insight into developments internationally, exchange experiences with peers and strengthen relationships across the global ICC network.
Trade Finance specialist at DNB, Øyvind Gåseide, was one of three members representing the Norwegian Banking Commission in London this week.
“With participants from across the world, it is particularly interesting to hear what trade finance professionals in other markets are focusing on. It gives us valuable international perspectives and, at the same time, confirms that Norway is well positioned in many of the developments taking place in the sector,” says Øyvind Gåseide, Trade Finance Specialist at DNB and member of ICC Norway’s National Banking Commission.
Digitalisation, regulation, sustainable trade finance and new technologies were some of the topics discussed in London this week.
