TXF MENA Export, Project, Trade & Commodities Finance: Dubai 2022 | Trade and Export Finance (TXF) | 15 March 2022 | Grand Habtoor Resort, Dubai / Online, Al Falea St. Jumeirah Beach Residence - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Collaboration between Africa and the Middle East has arguably never been greater with many key players looking to reap the benefits of a promising trade corridor between the two regions. Newly formed Middle Eastern ECAs are united by both their desire to bolster exports from the region and by their designs on Africa as a key reciprocal trading market. Moreover, burgeoning use of Dubai not only as a trading hub for the Middle East but Sub-Saharan Africa too make it a ripe location to gather a deal-hungry attendee list from leading ECAs, corporates, EPCs, developers lenders, investors, ECAs, export and project finance players.
