Map the trade cycle
Purchase orders, shipment records, accepted invoices and settlement behaviour establish the reality of the working-capital requirement.

Trade & Receivables Finance
Working-capital facilities grounded in the quality and cycle of the underlying trade.
Understanding The Mandate
What goods or services create the receivables, and who is ultimately obliged to pay?
Investment Banking & Capital Raising
Trade can grow faster than the cash available to finance it. Suppliers, buyers and distributors may be commercially strong while payments arrive months after goods are shipped or delivered. AFII considers how receivable-backed facilities and structured trade products can help bridge that mismatch.
The work begins with the counterparties, evidence of delivery, credit quality, collection arrangements and concentration of exposures. Trade receivables securitisation, purchase facilities or other structured funding may be examined where the contractual and legal environment supports them. Published AFII history includes the development of structured trade finance products, but each new facility requires independent assessment.
The Issues That MatterWhat The Structure
What The Structure
Needs To Address.
Each mandate needs a different balance of structure, commercial judgement and execution. These themes explain the practical issues that usually shape the work.
Analyse the obligor
Financing can depend on the buyer's credit strength as much as the supplier's balance sheet. Disputes and dilution risks must be considered.
Build collection controls
Eligibility criteria, assignment rights, collection accounts and reporting need to be agreed before a facility can operate reliably.

Nothing replaces the review of contracts, financial information and the particular circumstances of the borrower, project or investment. Each engagement remains specific to the transaction, counterparties and jurisdiction involved.
