There is risk involved in international trade, so we cover various methods for mitigating some of the risk, and how those methods protect the buyer or seller or both.

I enjoyed learning about the different ways companies can diversify and manage risk and the various payment methods, especially the recent supply chain finance method.

The couple of slides on trade partners are confusing and can be improved upon for clarity. The instructor is also sometimes hard to hear.
