At the ICC Banking Commission meeting in Paris, Trade Treasury Payments spoke with Florian Witt about the organisation’s priorities for 2026 as global trade continues to navigate fragmentation, regulatory pressure, and rapid digital transformation. The discussion explored how the Commission is working to advance digital trade adoption, strengthen sustainable trade finance frameworks, improve regulatory alignment, and support efforts to close the global trade finance gap. Witt also reflected on the importance of international cooperation, common standards, and practical industry guidance in helping banks and corporates adapt to an increasingly complex global environment.
