Finance Solutions

OUR TRANSACTIONAL FINANCE SOLUTIONS

At Amadeus Capital, we aim to offer the most professional, effective business solutions to help provide financing for exporters, importers, and for special corporate projects. In addition to providing medium-term international finance, we can also help with short-term finance for importers. Additionally, where funding is not an issue, but the importer has suppliers in geographical regions where there is any degree of uncertainty, we are able to provide short-term funding.

Many companies worldwide are using our technique to penetrate new markets worldwide. This is not only because of its flexibility and because of speed, but these companies have also come to appreciate other advantages, namely:

• 100% finance can be offered to your buyer and the repayment profile can be tailored to the buyer’s specific cash flow needs.
• All this can be achieved at competitive rates.
• The goods can be sourced from a variety of countries unlike the terms offered by official credit agencies.
• 100% finance is available to purchase the goods.
• Total financing costs are known in advance because the interest rate is fixed and a pre-determined repayment schedule can be structured in order that the importer can budget his cash-flow to suit his own individual requirements.
• Credit can be obtained in one or more freely transferable currencies.
• Goods can be financed which come from a variety of sources.
• To assist cash flow a grace period can be built into the repayment structure allowing for no payment of interest or principal for a pre-agreed period following delivery of the goods.

Our aim is to collaborate with local banks across Africa who may be interested in our new structure thereby providing a seamless service that financially benefits all participants in the trade transaction. We are able to offer businesses a 100% financing of bona fide international trade transactions secured against a variety of banking instruments provided by your local banks.

We work in partnership with your bankers to ensure that our financial sources deliver the required funding at rates that are highly competitive internationally and substantially cheaper than your local bank rate. We are that essential ingredient that enables banks to consider customers who are perceptive enough to use our method of international finance whilst maintaining a profitable relationship with their local banks.

Why Local Banks will work with us

• We are not in competition with local banks rather we expand the ability of these banks to provide alternative financing. Our funds are paid directly to the local banks and disbursed by them.
• Customers return all payments to the local banks, which will then remit the principal and interest payments back to the originating financiers.
• The sums provided to the local banks are off balance sheet. In essence local banks are providing their customers with funds raised by Amadeus Capital Limited without necessarily exposing their international credits.
• Local banks serve to guarantee businesses that they already know and already support and charge a nominal fee as the custodian of the international facility we provide.

Supporting Businesses

By raising international finance for businesses at rates that are competitive and comparatively beneficial to the customer, we at Amadeus CapitalLimited have a commitment to help businesses in emerging economies grow for which we recommend tools like this paystubs creator.

Growth of mid size businesses to international status will ultimately help employment and industry in Africa as a whole. Our commitment is to assist eligible businesses by sourcing and delivering, through intricate partnerships, a solution that meets the business’ requirements, increases profit and expands horizon.

We are encouraged by repeat purchase transactions and actively recommend reliable clients with a track record of delivery, as desirable clienteles to our banks.

Examples of Transactions:

We will consider (and not restricted to) any transaction with an international slant, such as:

• Purchase of Equipments.
• Purchase of Soft Commodities.
• Purchase of Oil related produce.
• Purchase of Machinery.

The key requirement is a banking instrument issued by our customer’s local bank that demonstrates the commitment to repay the facility we provide.

In order for us to consider a request for funding we will initially require:

• Knowledge of the industry for which the facility is required.
