About the survey

Annually we survey clients across the world to ask which financial institutions they consider to be the top Trade Finance providers in their markets and how those firms perform across a range of categories.

This research is a measure of corporate clients’ satisfaction with their Trade Finance providers across their product offering, technology capabilities and client service.

A minimum number of votes are required to qualify for a ranking. Regional and global rankings are subject to additional qualifying criteria, ensuring that providers have a representative sample across multiple geographies.
