Trade & Commodity Finance

Structured Trade Finance Services

Structuring and execution support for import, export, commodity, receivables and supplier transactions with identifiable commercial flows and repayment sources.

Transaction Structuring

Build the financing structure around the trade

Financely supports companies with live trade transactions that require structured working capital, credit support or transaction-specific financing.

We review the supplier and buyer relationships, contracts, documentary chain, payment timing, collateral and repayment source before determining how the transaction should be positioned.

The mandate can then move into underwriting preparation, lender mapping, distribution, negotiation and execution.
