Yesterday, on January 30, the two-day seminar of the Export School of the Russian Export Center "Financial instruments of Export" ended in the regional Congress Hall.
The educational program is conducted for representatives of small and medium-sized businesses in the region free of charge. The organizer of the seminar course in the Omsk region is the Export Support Center, operating on the basis of the Agency for Development and Investment. Seminars are held monthly, and the course is taught by professionally certified trainers.
The seminar was attended by representatives of 15 companies. These entrepreneurs are engaged in various fields of activity: agriculture, food production, packaging production, consulting and construction.
Using practical examples, the Omsk Region exporters were shown the procedure for calculating the value of an export contract, methods for minimizing financial risks, standard export credit conditions, and the specifics of bank verification of the exporter and its counterparty.
"On the first day of the seminar, the participants studied the theoretical aspects of using financial resources in conducting foreign economic activity. On the second day, in mini-groups, entrepreneurs solved practical business cases from the experience of real exporters, and also passed final testing and received certificates from students of the course "Financial Instruments of Export," the Omsk Region Export Support Center said.
"I have received new, most importantly, useful information. The presentation was accessible and understandable. After listening to the seminar, I began to understand the financial instruments of export. After applying the acquired skills in practice, you realize that it is easy to develop foreign economic activity in international markets and markets of neighboring regions, and the Export Support Center is always ready to help. In the future, I plan to attend all the training seminars from the Export Support Center and use their support measures," said Zhennat Sultanova, a representative of ARM LLC.
By the end of 2019, the Omsk Region Export Support Center is planning training seminars for representatives of small and medium-sized businesses interested in developing the company and launching export activities. Representatives of Omsk companies can participate free of charge. Announcements of seminars and information about the Center's business missions are published on the website.
