Shipping And Maritime Finance
Financely structures maritime asset financing for shipowners, operators, lessors, and investors seeking capital for vessel acquisitions, refinancing, fleet expansion, and port-side equipment.
Shipping And Maritime Asset Financing Solutions
Shipping transactions are document-heavy, asset-specific, and lender-driven. The right structure depends on vessel age, charter profile, flag, class, sponsor strength, jurisdiction, residual value, and the lender’s view of sector exposure. Financely helps clients prepare and position these transactions properly before they go to funders.
We support financing cases involving bulk carriers, tankers, offshore support vessels, container fleets, and selected port-side assets. That can include senior debt, structured lease solutions, export credit-backed debt, sponsor equity positioning, and lender-ready documentation packages.
Bulk Carrier Acquisitions
We help structure financing for Capesize, Panamax, Supramax, and Handysize vessel purchases or refinancings, with attention to repayment profile, earnings assumptions, asset value, and security package.
Offshore Support Vessels
For PSVs, AHTSs, and similar offshore assets, we help present charter-backed financing cases, lease structures, and sponsor-supported capital stacks suited to the operating profile.
Tanker Finance And ECA Support
Where relevant, we help clients prepare transactions for export credit-backed debt, including the lender package, project narrative, and supporting materials needed for review.
Container Fleet Financing
Fleet transactions may involve vessel SPVs, sale and leaseback structures, syndicated debt, or reserve arrangements. We help shape the file into something lenders can assess properly.
Port Equipment And Ancillary Assets
Maritime finance is not limited to hulls. We also support transactions involving cranes, reachstackers, terminal handling equipment, and other port-side assets where lease financing or asset-backed debt may be appropriate.
What we do:
we prepare the financing file, shape the structure, organize the supporting package, and introduce the opportunity to relevant funding counterparties.

Deliverables And Timeline
The original scope on this page states a flat USD 15,000 fee with delivery in 5 to 10 business days. In practice, timing depends on how complete the starting file is, how complex the structure is, and whether ECA or multi-party lender review is involved. A clean, well-documented case moves faster. A weak or incomplete file does not.
Important:
Financely is not a bank or vessel lessor. We do not promise approvals. We structure, package, and present transactions to relevant capital providers based on the quality of the asset, sponsor, and overall financing case.
If you are raising capital for a vessel acquisition, refinancing, fleet expansion, or port equipment transaction, send the file and scope. We will review the structure and outline the next step.
