Structured Export Finance

Structured export financing helps exporters fund the production, purchase, storage or shipment of goods before payment is received from the overseas buyer.

What it is

Structured Export Finance supports exporters who need working capital before goods are shipped or before buyer payment is received.

Teybridge structures and funds the transaction using export contracts, purchase orders, invoices, warehouse or collateral controls, shipment documentation and proceeds from the buyer. This allows the exporter to complete the trade while maintaining discipline around cash flow, security and repayment.

Export Finance Objective

Enable exporters to fulfil confirmed overseas sales while managing working capital pressure between production, shipment and buyer payment.

Exporter

Produces or sources the goods

Trader / Buyer

Purchases the exported goods

Structured Finance

Funding structured around the export trade

Off-taker

Pays for goods after shipment or delivery

When export finance is useful

Export finance is most effective where the exporter has a confirmed buyer, identifiable goods, clear shipment terms, and a predictable repayment path from buyer proceeds.

Pre-shipment funding

Exporter requires funding before goods are shipped.

Production or procurement

Funding supports production, sourcing or aggregation of goods.

Shipment support

Trade is supported by invoices, contracts, storage records or shipping documents.

Buyer payment timing

Buyer pays after shipment, delivery or agreed credit terms.

Who it is for

Commodity traders, exporters and suppliers of hard and soft commodities with confirmed overseas buyers, controlled stock, logistics and delivery schedules.
Companies requiring funding between production and overseas buyer payment

Typical use case

A trader has secured an overseas buyer for a commodity shipment but needs funding or working capital to purchase, aggregate and prepare the goods before export.

Teybridge may provide structured funding against the confirmed export contract, with repayment aligned to the buyer’s payment after shipment or delivery.

Risk and security approach

Each export finance structure is assessed around the exporter’s performance ability, the quality of the buyer, the export documentation, control over goods, and the expected repayment flow.

Exporter performance

Assessment of the exporter’s ability to source and deliver the goods.

Buyer credit

Review of the buyer’s financial strength and payment track record.

Inventory / collateral control

Monitoring of goods, storage and shipment progress.

Repayment alignment

Repayment linked to buyer proceeds and the export trade cycle.
