Trade Finance Fund for Professional Investors

Trade Finance Fund for Professional Investors

Our Trade Finance Fund provides professional investors with access to a portfolio of short-tenor, self-liquidating trade finance transactions. Each deal is secured by strong collateral structures including letters of credit under UCP 600, warehouse receipts under collateral control, and credit-insured receivables. The strategy is designed to produce stable, uncorrelated returns while maintaining strict risk discipline and capital preservation.

Outcome: Consistent yield generation backed by enforceable security interests in underlying goods and receivables.

Investment Rationale

  • Low correlation to traditional equity and bond markets
  • Short duration exposures reducing mark-to-market volatility
  • Collateralised transactions with documentary controls and third-party verification
  • Real economy transactions in energy, metals, and agricultural commodities
