This milestone comes just four years after the platform’s launch, addressing the $2.5 trillion gap that continues to stifle trade growth in emerging economies
DP World Trade Finance has mobilised over $1 billion in working capital for businesses across emerging markets, helping close the global trade finance gap and keep goods moving through some of the world’s most challenging economic environments.
This milestone was achieved through a combination of DP World’s own lending operations and partnerships with more than 32 financial institutions globally- including the likes of J.P. Morgan, Standard Bank, NedBank and more. Their financing solutions, delivered alongside DP World’s logistics capabilities, have helped reduce risk and improve access to capital for underserved businesses of all sizes, thus lowering barriers to international trade.
By combining trade finance with logistics, DP World offers businesses both funding and real-time visibility into their supply chains. This integrated model helps lenders make faster, more informed decisions - unlocking capital where it’s needed most. The portfolio that DP World Trade Finance handles has also proven to create an very healthy loan book with high quality assets, way better than the industry benchmarks, further reinforcing the effectiveness of this data-driven, integrated approach.
