Trade And Commodity Finance
Petroleum Products Trade Finance
We structure and place capital for petroleum product transactions across origin, in-transit, and delivered flows. Coverage includes bridge loans, SBLC-backed structures, DLC-backed structures, inventory lines, receivables lines, and borrowing base facilities, with lender-facing underwriting from day one.
Petroleum deals move fast and fail fast when structure is weak. Counterparty quality, shipment timing, storage rights, sanctions screening, title chain, and payment mechanics all need to be coherent before lender launch. Our process is built to remove avoidable friction and push only executable files into matched lender channels.
