Basel III Trade Finance - Crestmont Group

Basel III Trade Finance

Global banking stability relies heavily on stringent capital requirements. Consequently, the Basel III Trade Finance regulations, introduced after the 2008 financial crisis, profoundly reshaped how banks lend capital.

Therefore, while aimed at creating a safer financial system, the regulations unintentionally increased the cost and complexity of trade finance. At Crestmont Group, we recognize that navigating Basel III Trade Finance is a strategic necessity. We help clients structure deals that meet these rules while securing essential liquidity.
