1. Management Structure
The major benefits companies would see from the centralization of their trade finance process are:1. Enhanced control, attained when one individual or department takes responsibility and has an overview of the whole company's process. 2. More consistent implementation of risk mitigation policies - again achieved when one individual overseas the process. 3. Ability to leverage their buying power with banks, enabling them to obtain better transaction pricing and, to a certain extent, risk pricing.
Some of the negative consequences due to lack or limited centralization are non-homogeny process and procedures leading to higher cost of operation plus diminishing competence.
