Pre-Shipment Finance is the Leveraging of agreed contracts to provide working capital.

Exporters can find that winning new contracts puts pressure on working capital as production and staff costs increase. But if you have a confirmed order from a quality buyer, backed by a letter of credit, then we may be prepared to lend as much as 50% of the value of the contract. Pre-shipment finance is available to experienced manufacturers with a good financial track record and a firm contract to supply creditworthy finished goods on standard trading terms.
