At Commercial Money Matters we can source funding for importers in the form of trade credit, providing capital for transactions that might not otherwise proceed.
Using our expertise, experience and market knowledge, we create bespoke solutions using specialist lenders who will fund supplier deposits, and can act as the “importer”, settling VAT, import duties and freight costs. This form of credit can also work alongside existing invoice finance facilities, should they exist.
We can provide services to the following clients: partnerships of four or more people; trusts and charities; limited companies and public limited companies. We regret we cannot assist sole traders and partnerships of under four people.
Arranged for
Essentials of a trade credit arrangement include:
- Importer/borrower must be a sound and established business
- Goods must be of quality and sourced from an established, reputable supplier
- Goods must be pre-sold to quality customers at a suitable profit margin
- Period between importation and sale 90 days maximum.
