Participants will learn about obtaining export working capital loans, securing overseas payments, financing activities that fuel global expansion and effective payment options to offer international clients. They will also gain valuable insight into government programs such as the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC), the Trade Development Agency (TDA) and multi-lateral development banks that are beneficial to exporters.

Guest speakers will include Helen Lesieur, Vice President, Global Trade Services at RBS Citizens, J. Joseph Grandmaison, Member, Board of Directors, Export-Import Bank of the United States and John Joyce, Regional Manager, International Trade Programs, Small Business Administration.
