Trade financing is when finance is made available by banks to various trading companies to perform cross-border transactions. It also acts as an engine that drives the growth of a country's GDP. When a country produces goods or services, it exports some of those goods and services to other countries. However, there is a time lag between the production and delivery time required for the consignment to reach the importing country. So, there is a certain degree of uncertainty about whether the parties will honor their part of the transaction. Hence, the importing country appoints a bank to issue a financial instrument that promises to make the payment to the exporting country upon the successful delivery of the consignment to the importing country.

Power systems are used in all telecommunication installations for controlling, monitoring, and measuring the flow of power across telecom networks. These systems are made up of a combination of smaller systems such as converters, distributors, controllers, and backup systems that bear different technical specifications. The primary application of telecom power systems is in wireless and fixed-line environments. They are used in several other related applications including network equipment, xDSL terminals, mobile broadband, cellular sites, and transmission applications.

The services and maintenance industry is growing exponentially due to the current industrial concepts of cost-benefit analysis in the face of severe competition in the manufacturing industry. Motors and drives are major determinants of the power supply chain in industrial applications. Any malfunction of these components would cause a lack of sustainability in the manufacturing processes and can incur extensive losses. Therefore, motors and drives servicing has been gaining prominence in recent years.

Industrial automation software such as SCADA and MES are migrating from computers to mobile devices. Authorized operators can remotely access data using a variety of devices such as tablets and smartphones. These devices are used as portable HMIs to monitor remote equipment and enable field operators to assess the current condition of a process or equipment quickly without being tied to a workstation. Technologies embedded in smartphones, such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons, near-field communication (NFC), and Global Positioning System (GPS), have enabled the integration of SCADA with smartphones.

Employees in various industries are exposed to several hazards that can cause injury or death.
