Institutional Channels

Bank, NBFC & Fintech Partnerships

Building accountable routes between business customers and financing institutions.

Understanding The Mandate

Which licensed finance partners and product categories fit the proposed distribution channel?

SME Finance & Banking Distribution

Distribution works only when the product, customer and regulated financing institution are clearly matched. A partner network without a reliable understanding of suitability, disclosure and customer consent creates more problems than it solves.

AFII's proposed channel arrangements focus on institutional relationships and support for qualified enquiries. Banks, NBFCs and fintech participants can differ in the products they are authorised to offer and the way they assess risk; each relationship should follow the institution's own onboarding, disclosure and compliance requirements.

The Issues That Matter

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.

1

Choose partners deliberately

Service coverage, product suitability, geography and customer-support expectations matter more than the number of logos in a partner list.

2

Keep the customer informed

The identity of the actual financier, fees, consent and use of information must be made clear at the right stage.

3

Respect credit decisions

The originating adviser does not control institutional underwriting or guarantee acceptance.

A Practical Perspective

Work From The
Underlying Facts.

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.
