How to avoid international trade risks?

1. Carry out credit investigation of trading partners

In international trade, it is very important to choose a good trading partner, which is the premise of avoiding trade risks. We must carefully examine the authenticity of the other party's enterprises and find out the credit status of the other party.

2. Use technical means to transfer risks

In international trade, foreign trade export enterprises can take some technical measures and pay a certain price to effectively transfer the relevant risks by letting the relevant parties bear the risks. There are many types of transfer risk avoidance measures, and the foreign trade subject should choose reasonable transfer techniques and means according to the specific situation of trade.

3. Select an effective settlement method

Like general domestic trade, there are also logistics and capital flows in international trade. If the importer cares about whether the goods specified in the contract can be received after payment, the exporter cares more about whether the goods can be received after delivery. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a settlement method that meets the security of both parties. The main payment methods used in international trade include credit sale, collection and payment by letter of credit.

4. Effectively improve the quality of export products

Today, the competition in the international market has changed from price competition to quality competition. Enterprises should rely on scientific and technological progress, pay attention to the application of scientific and technological achievements in production, and constantly develop new products, while improving the quality, grade and processing depth of products. In the face of international technical barriers to trade and the increasing "international standards", China's export enterprises should use product quality to fight back, strive to improve the level of China's standards, create brand products, and enhance the international competitiveness of products, in order to avoid the policy risks brought by technical barriers to trade.

5. Strictly follow the general rules of international trade

The general rules of international trade are generally the general rules, norms and rules of international trade formulated by international organizations or business groups.
