Transactional Trade Finance & Documentary Credit Arrangement
Transactional Trade Finance — Documentary Credit Arrangement
We arrange transactional trade finance on a per-deal basis for qualified corporate buyers and sellers, focusing on Documentary Credits (Letters of Credit) and other bank-backed trade payment instruments. This model provides funding for specific, approved transactions without requiring a revolving credit line or long-term facility.
Financely acts as an arranger, structuring and introducing your transaction to our network of banks, specialty finance lenders, and trade funds. We prepare, package, and present your deal so that it meets credit committee standards from day one.
Not every company needs a year-round facility. Transactional trade finance allows you to secure funding or payment protection for a single shipment, project, or sales contract — while preserving balance sheet flexibility and avoiding unnecessary unused credit fees.
What We Arrange
- Documentary Letters of Credit (LC / DLC) — Issuance via SWIFT MT700, confirmed if required
- Standby Letters of Credit (SBLC) — As payment guarantees or performance undertakings
- Documentary Collections — D/P (Documents against Payment) or D/A (Documents against Acceptance)
- Structured Payment Undertakings — Custom solutions for complex trade transactions
Minimum Criteria
Our Process
- Review transaction details and assess financeability
- Screen parties and goods against sanctions and compliance lists
- Structure the proposed instrument (LC terms, expiry, conditions)
- Introduce to pre-qualified issuing banks or trade finance lenders
- Negotiate terms and manage issuance process through to deal closing
