For business owners and acquirers pursuing private debtsubmit your deal for review. We revert within one working day with next steps and either a quote for our services.
Trade finance rewards speed and punishes documentation gaps. If your facility is holding up orders, the problem is usually not the lender. It is the package, the sizing, and the instrument fit.
We underwrite the trading flow, size the right instruments to your cash conversion cycle, and hand you a ranked lender list. As a core component of our trade finance advisory work, we build the package that banks and trade funds actually want to see. Where licensing applies, regulated partners execute under their own approvals. If your deal is asset-driven rather than trade-driven, see our structured debt readiness review
instead.

We start with your purchase orders, buyer and supplier evidence, trading history, and financials. We map the cash conversion cycle, size the facility against real order volume, and match the instrument to your flow. We then produce the lender-ready package and the ranked provider list, and manage the dialogue from first presentation to term sheet negotiation. You get a decision, not a deck.

Engagements start at USD 2,500 and are credited against the full structuring mandate if you proceed within 90 days. Submit your deal details and we will confirm fit before issuing a formal engagement contract.
A fixed-fee diagnostic that sizes your trade facility, matches the right instruments to your cash conversion cycle, and gets your documentation lender-ready before you approach providers.
What documents will lenders ask for?
Trading history, buyer and supplier evidence, purchase orders or contracts, shipping and insurance documentation, and two to three years of financials. We tell you exactly which ones you are missing.
Do you work with first-time traders?
Only where there is verifiable trading history or a strong buyer and supplier base. Facilities for new traders without evidence are rarely fundable and we will tell you so before you spend the fee.
What is the starting price?
The standard review starts at USD 2,500 for a single corridor or single instrument. Complex, multi-corridor, or structured commodity reviews start at USD 7,500. Rush delivery carries a 50% premium.
Are you a lender or a licensed broker?
Neither. Financely is an advisory firm. Where licensing applies, regulated partners execute under their own approvals.
