What is Trade Finance and How Does It Benefit My Business?

Trade finance refers to short-term credit solutions that help businesses pay international suppliers while maintaining healthy cash flow. Our lending partners offer flexible, unsecured trade finance that allows you to pay suppliers upfront in their local currency and repay up to 150 (longer terms can be evaluated) days later in your domestic currency. This structure helps reduce currency risk, preserve existing credit lines, and improve supplier relationships through faster payments. With no collateral requirements or hidden fees, it’s a practical way to manage working capital, strengthen global partnerships, and support international growth with confidence.

What are the Risks Involved in Trade Finance?

Trade finance has its benefits, but it also comes with risks. These include the possibility that the buyer or seller might not fulfill their agreement, changes in currency value, political instability in some areas, and delays due to regulations. These risks can disrupt shipments, cause financial losses, or damage supplier relationships. However, you can reduce most of these risks by using the right trade finance tools and by working with a trusted provider like PulseFX, which understands international rules and market changes.

Can I use trade finance for services, or only physical goods?

While trade finance is most commonly used for physical goods (such as inventory, equipment, or raw materials), certain service-based transactions may also be eligible — especially if they involve international contracts, milestone-based payments, or deliverables. Eligibility depends on the nature of the service, documentation available, and your repayment structure. Your FX and finance specialist can help assess fit based on your use case.
