Trade cycle
Map shipment, documents, payment and cash conversion before discussing a product.
What we do / Trade finance
Start with the trade.
Then the instrument.
The instrument should fit the commercial transaction — not the other way around.

Practical support.
Instrument fit
Identify which instrument best matches the commercial transaction and risk profile.
Document readiness
Bring contracts, POs, invoices, shipping and KYC evidence into a coherent file.
Bank discussion readiness
Go into the bank discussion with a clear transaction, requirement and supporting evidence.
Working capital view
See where the trade cycle ties up cash and where a banking need may arise.
Trade FX
Identify where currency exposure and conversion cost enter the transaction.
UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUMENT
Different needs.
Different instruments.
LC
Letter of credit
A documentary payment instrument where the issuing bank honours complying documents under the credit terms.
BG / LG
Bank guarantee
Bank-backed support for contractual, payment or performance obligations, subject to the guarantee terms.
SBLC
Standby letter of credit
