Case study: Importing manufacturing machinery and equipment

Our manufacturing client had sourced machinery and equipment from overseas and required assistance to access finance, and make cross-border payments.

Challenges

  • Our client required financing for heavy machinery and equipment
  • The business wanted to mitigate the risk of currency volatility

Solutions

  • Our team of advisors and account executives ensured that our client’s business needs were understood and matched with the right type of financing solution
  • Additionally, a letter of credit was provided for the payment of the asset to the offshore company
  • Forward Exchange Contracts were provided to mitigate any foreign exchange volatility and to enable the client to budget and cost accurately
