2023 Marked a Year of Transformation for the Industry

The Berne Union has released its 'State of the Industry 2023 Report' with analysis of data and key trends for 2023 Financial Year

Building on the recovery seen in 2022, 2023 ushered in a surge in new business with a critical shift towards new markets, long-term solutions, and new products.

With supply chains maturing following the pandemic, clients are increasingly seeking new types of support. Project financings flourished, untied products boomed and green and transition support led the charge towards record levels of new business.

Explore how products are changing, risks are evolving and trade patterns shifting in this report.
