Trade Finance

In a rapidly developing and competitive trade environment, a Trade Credit Finance Solution Provider that has the ability to access local knowledge, business customs, with a global reach is a highly valued credential.

Trade Credit Finance is a funding mechanism designed to assist in the purchase of goods or inventory. It is typically a method of short term finance over and above conventional banking finance which provides your business a higher degree of flexibility to manage growth through the purchase of additional inventory. Trade Credit Finance is tailored to match the cash flow cycle to alleviate the strain of increased turnover, longer debtor repayment cycles, unlock growth in sales, and allows flexibility to tender for projects. Put simply this is a form of transactional credit finance which is offered by us at MCB.
