Bank Introductions and Lender Introductions for Trade Finance Deals

Deals stall when you pitch the wrong bank, the wrong corridor, or the wrong product owner. We fix that. We introduce you to decision makers who fund letters of credit, standbys, UPAS, discounting, receivables, and warehouse facilities. You get a clean route, a short fee range, the exact documents required, and a timetable you can plan around.

Outcome: curated bank and lender intros with real appetite, priced and routed for your corridor, with a clear path to closing.

When This Is The Right Move

Supplier rejects your bank
You need an approved confirmer or SBLC issuer your counterparty will accept.
You need terms without cash margin
UPAS, deferred LC, or discounting required to match your receivables cycle.
Working capital is tight
You need receivables, inventory, or warehouse lines tied to real collateral.
Corridor risk blocks you
Country appetite, sanctions checks, or weak correspondents keep killing deals.

Who We Introduce You To

Confirming banks and SBLC desks
Confirmed LC, silent confirmation, ISP98 standbys for performance and payment risk.
UPAS and import LC lenders
Sight to seller, tenor to you. 90, 120, 180 day structures with clean reimbursement language.
Forfaiters and discounting houses
Post-shipment liquidity for deferred LCs and avalised bills. Net proceeds that make sense.
Receivables, ABL, and warehouse lenders
Borrowing base on AR, inventory, and in-bond stock with field audit and control.

Indicative Lender Appetite
