Global trade is still heavily reliant on paper-based documents to ensure the flow of goods around the world. And the continued use of physical ‘Bills of Lading’ means there are lots of inefficiencies in the way the global supply chain works today.
The global trade industry has already agreed that ‘electronic Bills of Lading’ (eBL) will replace paper but, so far, adoption has been slow. One of the main challenges is the current lack of technical interoperability between the various players involved in each trade transaction.
Come along to learn more about how we’re addressing these challenges, and hear the results of our recent collaborative project designed to enable the digital supply chain of the future.
Watch Swift’s Head of Innovation, Nick Kerigan, and Boaz Lessem, Chief Legal Regulation & Partnerships Officer, at trade platform WAVE BL for our latest Inside Innovation Live.
