Trade Finance Account Setup & Bank Onboarding
We set up your trade finance account and onboard you with licensed banks. You get a banker ready dossier, ICC compliant wording, a shortlist of issuing and confirming banks, and first deal execution for SBLC, DLC, UPAS, and documentary collections. Once live, we can raise working capital or equity for growth.

Financely acts as an arranger on a best efforts basis. We are not a bank and do not issue LCs. All services are subject to due diligence, KYC and AML, sanctions screening, and partner approval. Nothing here is a commitment to lend or a solicitation to buy securities. ICC rules apply where referenced.
