Trade & Supply Chain Finance Summit 2026 Mumbai: Banks, CFOs and MSMEs to Discuss RBI, FEMA and Trade Finance
Mumbai, India: The 3rd Annual Trade & Supply Chain Finance Summit 2026 is scheduled to take place on 19 November 2026 at the Radisson Blu Mumbai International Airport, bringing together senior executives from banking, corporate treasury, trade finance, supply chain finance and international business.
The summit is expected to focus on some of the most important issues affecting India’s trade-finance ecosystem, including regulatory developments, liquidity management, MSME access to finance, supply-chain financing, foreign exchange regulations and the changing global trade environment.
RBI and FEMA Regulations in Focus
A key discussion at the summit will examine developments around the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and FEMA-related regulatory requirements and what changing rules could mean for banks, exporters, importers and Indian corporates engaged in cross-border transactions.
For companies involved in international trade, regulatory compliance can directly affect foreign-exchange transactions, documentation, payment structures and access to trade-finance facilities.
Supply Chain Finance and Liquidity
The summit will also examine how businesses can improve liquidity through supply chain finance, dynamic discounting and working-capital solutions.
These financing models are increasingly relevant for companies dealing with long payment cycles, inventory requirements and large networks of suppliers and distributors.
For exporters and manufacturers, better access to working capital can help bridge the period between production, shipment and final payment from customers.
MSME and SME Trade Finance Gap
Another major theme will be the availability of trade finance for SMEs and MSMEs. Smaller exporters and suppliers can face challenges in obtaining affordable working capital and transaction financing compared with larger corporations.
Industry participants are expected to discuss whether banks, NBFCs and alternative financing platforms can do more to improve financial inclusion for businesses participating in domestic and international supply chains.
Sustainable Trade Finance and ESG
The programme also highlights sustainable trade finance, including the integration of ESG considerations into risk assessment, financing structures and compliance frameworks.
As global buyers, lenders and investors increasingly consider sustainability standards, ESG-linked financing could become more relevant for Indian companies participating in international supply chains.
Tariff Wars and Future of Global Trade
A fireside discussion is expected to examine tariffs, protectionism and the future of global trade. The conversation is particularly relevant for exporters and importers navigating changing trade policies, sourcing strategies and geopolitical risks.
The broader question will be whether global commerce continues toward deeper integration or whether businesses increasingly move toward regional supply chains, bilateral arrangements and alternative settlement mechanisms.

Why the Summit Matters for Indian Exporters and Importers
India’s exporters and importers increasingly require financing solutions beyond conventional business loans. Depending on the transaction structure, businesses may use instruments such as letters of credit (LC), export finance, import finance, invoice discounting, factoring, supply chain finance and other working-capital facilities.
Events bringing banks, CFOs, treasury professionals and trade-finance specialists together can provide an important forum for discussing how these solutions are evolving and where financing gaps remain.
For companies trading between India, the UAE and other international markets, developments in cross-border finance, foreign exchange, compliance and supply-chain funding remain particularly relevant as businesses seek new export markets and global buyers.
