Under the Global Trade Liquidity Program (GTLP) of the World Bank, Singapore-based lender DBS Bank Limited (DBS) and member organization IFC - International Finance Corporation have inked a $500 million facility. The IFC said in a statement on Monday that the facility intends to accelerate economic progress throughout these regions and help bridge the record US$2.5 trillion global trade finance deficit. It also #promotes capital and trade flows in emerging countries throughout Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. The facility comprises IFC and DBS pooling the risk equally on a portfolio of trade-related assets up to $500 million, the release says. This improves DBS's ability to better manage risk and facilitate more trade finance, including Letters of Credit, to companies #trading with counterparts in emerging markets with quicker response times. The largest international development organization specializing in emerging market private sector development is IFC. The organization operates in more than 100 nations, generating markets and #opportunities in developing nations with the use of its resources, knowledge, and clout. As economies struggle with the effects of global mounting crises, the IFC committed a record $43.7 billion to private #businesses and financial institutions in developing nations in fiscal year 2023. This move highlights the capacity of the private sector to alleviate extreme poverty and promote shared prosperity.
