The Bank is successfully developing trade finance as one of its most important business lines. The trade finance programmes of FundServiceBank enable the Bank’s clients to receive machinery and equipment loans in amounts from USD 500 thousand up to 5 million with maturity up to 6 years. Every loan is precisely tailored to the specific needs of client, transaction and jurisdiction.

FundServiceBank arranges trade finance operations using its worldwide network of relationships with international financial institutions, foreign and transnational companies and correspondent banks. The Bank has established relationships with specialized export and credit agencies in foreign countries – HERMES and AKA Bank (Germany), ExImBank (USA), SACE (Italy), EGAP (Czech Republic), EKN (Sweden), Finnvera (Finland) etc. In this context, the Bank has also developed close relationships with equipment manufacturers and suppliers abroad – e. g. Siemens, DMG, TRUMPF (Germany), Fehlmann, Forest-Line (France), Mazak (Japan) and other companies. This enables the Bank to offer to domestic producers highly efficient and advantageous finance and commercial projects. FundServiceBank with its network of affiliated companies and business partners ensures quickly and trouble-free proceeding of international transactions, avoiding problems and risks. FundServiceBank can provide short term working assets or longer term funding with long-term low-cost loans.

The new packaged product, which FundServiceBank brought to the market a couple of years ago, was designed as a business solution for companies modernizing their production facilities. The package consists of an ample set of commercial and financial services integrated into a single multi-stage programme which includes feasibility study, pre-contract settling of supply and payments terms, arranging loans and raising additional funds,  supply, installation and ’turnkey‘ setup of equipment – all this organized, carried out and supervised by the Bank. This business arrangement may also, instead of direct purchase, include the leasing of machinery.
 The professional skills and expertise of the Bank’s staff help successful running of transactions in co-operation with banks and equipment suppliers at home and abroad for the benefit of domestic clients.

Many high-tech companies possess enormous potential for exports. The Bank, therefore, concentrated considerable efforts on packaged servicing of the foreign trade operations of exporting companies. The Bank provides domestic manufacturers with market analyses, assists in establishing business relationships and finding purchasers abroad, and helps in raising funds to support export oriented production programmes.

The Bank anticipates a further growth of interest of our customers in in trade finance operations.
