FAQ

Do you guarantee funding

No. This is best efforts. We raise the close rate with clean files, clear structures, and the right partners.

Who issues and confirms the LC

Banks and licensed partners. We draft and align LC text, manage terms, and run the checklist to issuance.

What if I am short on collateral

We structure assignments of proceeds, insured AR, account control, and inventory repo. Bridge capital can be arranged via partners when justified.

Who pays bank fees and SWIFT

Bank internal fees are paid directly to the bank or from the SPV balance. These costs are not part of our fees.

Financely acts as arranger and underwriter through a chaperoned model with regulated partners. Financely is not a bank and does not issue letters of credit. Services are best efforts and depend on due diligence, KYC and AML screening, sanctions compliance, insurance confirmation, credit approvals, collateral controls, and executed documentation. Bank internal fees are excluded from our scope. Retainers are non refundable once underwriting starts.
