Trade finance is an umbrella term that covers the various means businesses use to fund the manufacture and sale of products, particularly in cross-border transactions. Commercial finance companies and other trade finance providers such as asset based lenders, forfaiters, factors, purchase order financers, invoice discounters, and account receivable financers, provide the small business trade finance that you need to rapidly grow your business.

 

The AbdulJaami, PLLC Small Business Trade Finance practice typically advises businesses that seek to use trade finance under the following circumstances:

 

Business Expansion and Rapid Growth: If your business is experiencing an acceleration in growth and demand is outpacing your supply of working capital, we will help you to close a trade finance transaction that allows your working capital to keep pace with increased demand.

 

Seasonal Sales Pattern: Your business may be subject to large seasonal shifts in demand. Trade finance can be used to “elasticize” your working capital so that it expands during downswings putting you in excellent position to take advantage of the upswings.

 

Transactional Finance: Businesses that are contemplating mergers, acquisitions, or management buyouts may turn to trade finance to monetize assets such as accounts receivable and plants and equipment. AbdulJaami, PLLC Small Business Trade Finance will help you to use trade finance to reduce your requirement for external equity and debt and also reduce your risk profile, thereby decreasing the cost of the transaction.

 

Documentation for U.S. small business trade finance transactions is governed by Uniform Commercial Code Revised Article 9 and other state laws. Cross-border transactions may also be impacted by UCP 500, UCP 600, the UNIDROIT Convention on International Factoring and other international laws, rules and conventions.

 

Our Small Business Trade Finance practice is here to help you quickly and inexpensively structure and close your trade finance transactions. We understand the pressure to obtain financing quickly so that goods can be manufactured and revenue realized, and respond accordingly.
