Trade Finance Specialist | Latin America & Emerging Markets
15+ years in structured trade finance, specializing in ECA-backed transactions, BNDES facilities, forfaiting, and documentary credits. Deep expertise in Brazil, Turkey, MENA, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Has structured and closed deals exceeding $2 billion across 40+ countries.
Most trade finance knowledge is locked behind expensive consulting fees or buried in dense legal documents. Export Finance Insider was built to change that — providing institutional-grade intelligence in an accessible format.
Every guide, tool, and recommendation comes from someone who has actually structured and closed these deals, not from consultants who've only read about them.
Beyond the content on this site, we offer hands-on advisory and deal origination for cross-border trade finance. Built on the same practitioner-first philosophy, we bridge the gap between exporters seeking financing and the structures that make trade possible.
Euler Hermes, EXIM, EDC, SACE, UKEF, EKF — deep knowledge of coverage terms, pricing models, and eligibility criteria across major export credit agencies.
BNDES, FINAME, PROEX, regulatory navigation — specialized in structuring trade finance into Latin America's largest and most complex economy.
Without-recourse structures, secondary market trading, and discount optimization for trade receivables across emerging market corridors.
Letters of credit, standby LCs, bank guarantees — structuring and advising on documentary instruments that underpin cross-border trade.
Hedging strategies for emerging market currencies — forwards, options, and natural hedges tailored to trade finance tenor and structure.
Connecting exporters with financing solutions — identifying the right structure, the right ECA, and the right banking partners for each transaction.
Every piece of content comes from hands-on deal experience — not theory, not secondhand research. When we describe a structure, it is because we have closed it.
We recommend what works, not what pays the highest commission. Our analysis is independent and focused solely on what delivers the best outcome for your transaction.
Specialized depth where others offer only surface-level coverage. Brazil, Turkey, MENA, Sub-Saharan Africa — the markets where expertise matters most.
