Structured Trade Solutions for Physical Commodity Traders
Structured Trade Solutions for the Commodities Trading Industry
Structured Trade Solutions for the Commodities Trading Industry
Commodity trades don’t move without capital. When banks pull back or offer terms that kill margin, traders turn to structured solutions. Financely helps real traders and sponsors get funded by packaging deals lenders want to back — fast, clear, and tied to actual flows, not just paper.
What Structured Trade Finance Actually Means
Structured trade finance isn’t a buzzword. It’s about getting deals funded when the collateral isn’t sitting in cash. Instead, the structure is built around goods, receivables, purchase orders, and delivery contracts.
Financely helps clients set up deals using real-world mechanics:
— Pre-export finance backed by offtake contracts
— Borrowing base lines secured against inventory and receivables
— Warehouse receipt finance while goods are in transit
— Payment risk mitigation via structured letters of credit and performance undertakings
Who Actually Funds These Trades
Banks do some of this, but they’re slow and selective. Private credit desks, hedge funds, and family offices have stepped in. They fund short-duration commodity trades when risk is boxed in and margins make sense.
At Financely, we know exactly who moves in this market. Our network funds everything from fuel cargos and metals to agri shipments and seasonal trade gaps. Deals get distributed fast to desks that understand the mechanics, not just the headline.
What Sponsors Need to Provide
Private lenders are simple. They want clean files. That means:
— Contracts or POs with buyers
— Supplier agreements and delivery schedules
— Shipment logistics and incoterms
— Exit path (buyer payment or onward sale)
Financely steps in and underwrites all of this before we even show it to capital providers. We scrub the files and build a structure that works — for you and for them.
Our Process
Once we underwrite, we push the deal to private lenders in our network. This isn’t spray and pray. We run a tight list of desks that back real trades. We negotiate terms, clear compliance, and support through close. Typical turnaround for decision: 7–15 business days after submission.

Structured trade finance is about solving real problems for commodity players. Banks can be slow. Brokers are hit or miss. Financely steps in, builds the right structure, and brings deals to capital providers who move. If your trade is real and your timeline is short, we’ll get you in front of the right desks — and help you close.
