Trade Finance Solutions For Exports
As an exporter, you can’t afford to wait until your buyer receives the goods you’ve shipped to receive payment and you certainly can’t wait until the buyer has re-sold the goods. But, if you could offer terms to your buyers you would rack up more sales. We can bridge that gap by structuring Export Financing that will protect you throughout the deal, provide pre-export cash flow, and extend favorable terms to your buyer.
Export Financing Overview
Trade finance, already a specialized niche in the banking and financial services sector, becomes even more specialized when it focuses on just export financing. Export financing and the broader trade finance are enormously different from commercial and mortgage lending. Trade financing and export financing have to account for extended time frames in the transaction lifecycle because buyer and seller are separated by up to two oceans and 10,000 miles. It takes longer to communicate, longer to ship and longer to get paid than with local transactions.
Export transactions are also impacted by internationally required trade finance due diligence, know your customer CIS requirements and anti-money laundering statutes that make trade and trade finance providers do the heavy lifting. The reliability and suitability of importers and exporters are also examined. With export financing, those investigations focus entirely on the export side of the ledger.
While import-export transactions financed with cash in advance, open account and consignment purchases do take place, they almost never do, so we focus on the 80% to 90% of the industry that relies on professional, value-add export financing.
