Export Finance FAQs

Do you cover all export markets?

Typically we’re financing trade in Europe, US, Canada and also various Asian territories.  Our expert Client Management Team are on hand to look at your specific requirements and will quickly respond to your enquiries.

Can I use this facility to help grow my business in the US for example?

Yes, once you have customers in the US that we are happy to approve, you can finance your transactions with them to build out your market.

What happens if my customer defaults?

You’ve already received 80% of your invoice from Accelerated Payments.  We’ve insured the invoice to the value of 90% so regardless of what happens with the customer, you’re guaranteed 90% of the invoice value less interest and any additional fees incurred.
