September 27, Fineko/abc.az. Yasin Jalilov, the director of the Corporate Business Development Department of Bank VTB (Azerbaijan), has headed the expert group on trade financing & projects of the Azerbaijan Banks Association.

This unit analyzes the legislation of Azerbaijan in terms of the use of documentary business - letters of credit, guarantees, collection and other operations - for its compliance with international standards.
