Funding To Buy Physical Commodities
Buying physical commodities at scale requires structured capital.
Cash-on-delivery purchasing limits growth. Traditional banks impose restrictive limits. Many trading firms sit on profitable contracts but lack balance sheet capacity.
We arrange and place structured debt and trade finance facilities that fund the purchase, storage, and sale of physical commodities through senior, mezzanine, and junior tranche capital.
We do not lend. We operate as a structured debt and trade finance placement firm.
The Core Problem
Physical commodity trading is working-capital intensive.
Each cargo or shipment ties up cash before revenue is realized.
Without structured finance, traders face capped volumes, missed opportunities, and volatile cash flow.
Structured trade finance converts a commercial transaction into a financeable credit asset.
How Commodity Purchase Financing Works
1. Transaction Definition
Identify commodity, supplier, buyer, contract terms, volume, and pricing basis.
2. Structure Design
Define senior, mezzanine, and junior tranches plus collateral and controls.
3. Packaging
Prepare lender-grade transaction memo and financial model.
4. Capital Placement
Distribute to aligned private credit funds, family offices, and institutional lenders.
Typical Capital Stack
Senior Tranche
Lowest risk layer.
Usually secured by commodity title, warehouse receipts, and assignment of proceeds.
Mezzanine Tranche
Sits behind senior.
Enhances leverage where senior lenders cap advance rates.
Junior Tranche
First-loss or subordinated layer.
Used to bridge equity gaps or support early-stage trading firms.
Sponsor Equity
Trader’s own capital at risk.
