Trade Finance

Trade finance involves the provision of working capital for business trading goods and commodities internationally. For these businesses, the “financing gap” between purchasing from suppliers and realising profit from sales can be lengthy. Known as a trade cycle, these gaps create large risks for exporters who need to pay for the material and labour costs they have expended, and for importers requiring both proof of dispatch and finance before paying their suppliers. We provide bespoke financial solutions to manage these cycles and undertake new or expanded international trade ventures.

The benefits of trade finance are threefold. First, improved cashflow, enabling continued growth. Second, finance packages tailored to specific requirements. Third, specific tools to facilitate international trade transactions, which enhance trust and security for all parties in the transaction.

Merchant Services

As the traditional payment methods of cash and cheques decline, increasing levels of business is conducted using payments cards, both for business and consumer transactions.  However, like many aspects of finance, the high street banks are only interested in "plain vanilla" merchant acquiring.  For those businesses engaged in certain sectors or with mainly overseas customers, obtaining merchant services from your bank can be impossible.

We are able to provide connectivity to all the major card systems and payment gateways, including the increasingly important Asian-based providers.  By combining our merchants services offerings with certain payment solutions, we are able to package a full banking-type service when teh high street banks have no interest.

Using this technology will help our clients to better manage their international trade documents in a more efficient, faster and convenient way. This is especially crucial as international trade is document intensive.  Further, it will eliminate the need to involve a third-party institution just to confirm a simple payment which can be done easily online. This will save our clients valuable time in effecting and receiving international payments which will in turn lower their costs, while still enhancing trust between the importers and exporters. In short, it will simplify international trade and keep the process where it belongs: between the exporters and importers.
