Seeing “20,000t copper per month” or “10M barrels of Jet A1” requests online? Here’s why they fail logistics and credit, and what bankable commodity finance needs.
If you believe a sought-after commodity is sitting unencumbered in a warehouse waiting for an unknown buyer to show up with a “soft POF,” you are not thinking in the same world as commodity producers, traders, banks, and insurers. In real trade, the supply chain is financed forward. Inventory, receivables, offtake, and logistics slots are pledged, controlled, and documented long before an internet “buy request” appears.
A large share of global commodity trade relies on specialised finance or guarantees. In practice, producers and exporters often require working capital upfront to keep producing and shipping. That is why pre-export facilities and trader-arranged prepayment structures exist, where cash is advanced today and repaid through future shipments under controlled documentation and cash waterfalls.
A buyer or trading firm advances money to a producer for future deliveries, with repayment through contracted shipments. Banks may participate, but the economics are anchored to enforceable contracts and controlled flows, not wishful pricing.
Banks extend credit to producers that is repaid over time with goods. It is built around covenants, documentation, and disciplined monitoring, not social-media brokers promising “ready stock” at unrealistic discounts.
When inventory exists “in a warehouse,” it is often financed. That means warehouse receipts, collateral management, insurance assignments, title controls, and lender conditions. Unencumbered stock is the exception, not the norm.
In liquid markets, serious producers lock in sales and finance against those contracts. The output is allocated. The logistics are booked. The cashflows are mapped. That is what “bankable” looks like.
For sought-after commodities, idle stock creates a financing cost and a price-risk cost. Someone pays that carry. If the owner can sell the material, they typically do, or they finance it under controlled structures. If the owner cannot sell it, there is usually a reason: title issues, quality disputes, missing provenance, sanctions risk, liens, or the absence of credible payment mechanics.
| Your request assumes | What real desks assume |
|---|---|
| Unencumbered inventory is sitting idle | Inventory is often financed or contractually allocated with controls and covenants. |
| Payment can happen after delivery or inspection | Payment risk is mitigated upfront via LC/SBLC, escrow, bank guarantees, or insured receivables. |
| Unknown buyer deserves allocation | Allocation goes to verified counterparties with KYC cleared, bankable payment, and a defined execution path. |
| Huge volumes can appear instantly | Large volumes require offtake agreements, shipping programs, storage, insurance, and repeated settlement performance. |
The internet is full of requests like “20,000 tonnes of copper cathodes per month” or “10 million barrels of Jet A1 per month,” often paired with vague payment terms and fabricated paperwork. The problem is not only production. It is the logistics and the financing stack that must exist before anyone credible takes you seriously.
Ten million barrels per month implies a continuous program of tanker liftings, storage nominations, blending, quality certification, demurrage management, insurance, and port coordination. Serious counterparties will ask who your shipper is, who insures the cargo, who controls title, and what the settlement path is.
Big volumes are financed forward. The output is pre-sold, pre-financed, or pledged. If you cannot show a bankable payment instrument and a compliant buyer profile, you are not “one signature away.” You are outside the execution frame.
Commodity finance is not a mysterious “program.” It is a repeatable risk structure: money advances against evidence of performance, enforceable contracts, control of goods and documents, and a repayment waterfall that works even when things go wrong.
If your deal narrative starts with “We need offers,” “We need SCO,” “We need proof of product,” or “We need allocation,” and it does not start with verified buyer identity, bankable payment, and controlled settlement mechanics, the market will treat it as non-serious. That is not attitude. It is risk management.
| Item | What “real” looks like |
|---|---|
| Buyer identity | Company registration, beneficial owners, board signatory authority, and clean KYC/AML posture. |
| Bankable payment path | LC/SBLC/BG/escrow/insured receivables, with clear issuance bank and conditions precedent. |
| Execution plan | Incoterms, inspection regime, shipping program, discharge port, and timeline that matches reality. |
| Financing logic | Use of proceeds, repayment source, collateral and controls, and a committee-grade risk memo. |
Financely is an advisory and underwriting platform. We do not sell “warehouse miracles,” and we do not entertain structures that cannot survive basic diligence. We underwrite the transaction first, tighten the structure, and then coordinate introductions to regulated or institutional counterparties that can fund or issue instruments under their own approvals.
If you have real counterparties, contracts, and a credible payment path, submit the file. We will revert with a clear execution route, information requests, and pricing for underwriting and placement.
