- Trade Finance Guidance
Safer payment structures for cross-border trade.
We help buyers and suppliers understand and choose payment structures that protect both sides. Informational and consultative — we do not process payments or issue financial instruments.
What we cover
Topics our team can guide you on
Letter of Credit (LC)
Bank-backed payment that releases funds only when shipping documents match the agreed terms.
Escrow
A neutral third party holds funds and releases them once delivery conditions are met.
Payment terms
Advance, milestone, TT, DA/DP — when to use each and how they shift risk.
Risk reduction
Structuring payments alongside inspection and documentation to protect both sides.
Informational service
Phase 1 is informational and consultative. We do not act as a bank, issue Letters of Credit, or process payments. We help you understand options and prepare the documentation banks expect.
Request an inspection
Tell us about the shipment and we’ll dispatch an inspector.
Pair safer payment terms with independent inspection.
The two together drastically reduce counterparty risk.
