Documentary Letter of Credit MT700 for Precious Metals Trade
Financely structures documentary letter of credit support for precious metals buyers, traders and commodity desks that need a bankable MT700 instrument tied to a real shipment, verified counterparties and compliant trade documents.
For precious metals transactions that need banking discipline before execution
Precious metals deals attract scrutiny. Banks do not want vague mandates, unverifiable sellers, weak KYC, inflated claims or informal payment requests. They want a transaction file that explains the buyer, seller, origin, assay process, logistics route, contract terms, sanctions position, payment mechanics and documentary controls.
Financely helps sponsors prepare that file before approaching LC providers, issuing banks or confirming institutions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Financely issue an MT700 documentary letter of credit?
Financely is not a bank. Financely structures the transaction file, prepares the mandate for review and routes suitable files to potential issuing or banking counterparties.
What documents are usually needed for precious metals LC support?
Typical documents include signed sale contract, buyer KYC, seller KYC, proof of origin, assay process, logistics plan, insurance, inspection terms, corporate documents and sanctions screening materials.
Can a precious metals LC be arranged without a verified seller?
No. Banks and LC providers need a real counterparty, a real contract and a document set that can survive compliance review.
