How the transaction works

When a business wants to trade internationally, the exporter would typically want to be paid up front by the importer. The bank would issue a Letter of Credit, which guarantees this payment to the exporter upon receipt of documentary proof that the goods have been shipped. This is then repaid once the importer has paid for the goods, which could be anything between 30-180 days later.

The client wanted financing in order to fund expansion and worked with a trade finance facility in order to do so. Access to funding has allowed the company to grow and reach new clients.
