WORKSHOP STREAM IDEA LAB STREAM

Expanding into Sub-Saharan AfricaFrom traditional markets in West Africa (such as the Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroon and Senegal) to countries further afield like Ghana and Mozambique, this session looks at the complexities involved in exporting into Africa. What are the local banking landscapes like? What is the best way to approach due diligence processes? What risks need to be taken into consideration, and how can they be mitigated? What are the best sources of financing?Arnaud Froideval, Partner, Miller Insurance ServicesMargaret Eyres, Senior Export Finance Manager, Commerzbank

How can we create a more favourable environment for exporters?Following on from the morning’s presentations, it’s now your turn share your own ideas on how to encourage more French companies to export – from greater collaboration between private and state financiers, to new financing products for small exporters, to guidance on KYC/AML compliance and a more favourable legal environment.Stéphanie Tison, Deputy Director International Department, MEDEFJoachim Bokobza, Head of Unit Aerospace, Defence and Shipping, DG Tresor

Internationalising French SMEsLearn about the various strategies the French government has in place to encourage more French companies to export, and how these strategies can complement traditional export finance solutions.Frederic Rossi, Deputy Director General, Business FrancePedro Novo, Head of Export Finance, Bpifrance Financement

11:45

ECA comparisonWhat do other European ECAs offer, and how do their products compare to the French system? Could Bpifrance and other institutions learn lessons from one another’s ways of working? From direct lending, to provisions to cover sanctions snapback, to “national interest” rather than “national content” models.France Arnaud de Taddeo, Credit Insurance & Issuing guarantees broker, SolmondoIngo Junker, Head of Division Berlin Liaison Office, Euler HermesMaëlia Dufour, Director International Relations, Product Development, Ratings, Bpifrance Assurance ExportNabil Jijakli, Deputy CEO, CredendoModerator: Alexandre de Vathaire, Head of French & UK Export Finance, BNP Paribas

PLENARY STREAM

New system for French state guarantees – what worked and what could be better?We invite you to pin your feedback about the French ECA to our corkboard: What works well in the status quo? What could be better? What would you hope to see from Bpifrance in the future? We will use your messages as the basis for an interactive brainstorm about how to streamline the new system for French export credits.Christophe Viprey, Executive Director, Bpifrance Assurance ExportGabriel Cumenge, Sous-directeur financement international des entreprises, DG Tresor

14:45

Untangling MENALearn about the cultural, financial and geopolitical complexities of doing business in the Middle East and North Africa. Which sanctions might affect you and how can you make sure you are acting within the law? How might relations between Saudi Arabia and other countries like Yemen and Qatar affect you? Which markets are showing the most growth? Will Iran be a market for supported French exports in the near future?
