Trade Finance Gap Analysis Services
Many borrowers ask for the wrong product because they have not defined the real financing gap. They request an LC when they need working capital. They ask for pre-export finance when the issue is receivables. They approach lenders with no clear repayment logic.
FG Capital Advisors helps clients identify the actual gap in the trade cycle and match it to a more appropriate financing path.

Typical Outcomes
We help determine whether the matter is better suited to an LC, pre-export facility, post-shipment facility, receivables finance, inventory finance or another structure.
A better-defined request gives lenders a clearer basis to review the file and reduces wasted time on unsuitable approaches.
Who This Is For
This service is intended for importers, exporters, traders and SMEs that have been rejected by banks, are unsure what product fits, or need a more structured explanation of the transaction before approaching funders.
Important Clarification
FG Capital Advisors does not lend in its own name. We act as an advisory firm helping clients define the correct financing path and prepare bank-facing or lender-facing transaction materials.
