Why EN590 Files Get Rejected
- Weak contract discipline. Payment and documentary terms are not finance-grade.
- No margin plan. Collateral gaps are identified but not solved.
- Inconsistent counterparties. KYC and sanctions checks raise concerns.
- Poor document quality. Missing or inconsistent data slows underwriting.
- Unrealistic timelines. Credit and legal work need structured sequencing.
