Accessing an Underserved Market with Institutional Discipline
SupplySci provides institutional investors with direct access to short-duration trade finance investments—a structurally compelling fixed-income sector that remains underserved and inefficient. As traditional banks have retreated from financing creditworthy SMEs, this market gap creates an opportunity for investors seeking short-duraton asset-backed exposure and attractive risk-adjusted returns.
Our Strategy
The Opportunity:
-
Traditional banks have largely retreated from financing SMEs with $10-100M in revenue, creating a structural supply-demand imbalance of capital
-
This underserved segment offers attractive risk-adjusted returns with strong downside protection through collateralization
-
Company funding tied to tangible business transactions (inventory, receivables, supply chain flows)
Investment Characteristics:
-
Short Duration: 30-180 days, self-liquidating
-
Collateral: Liens on inventory, accounts receivable, and supply chain assets
-
Credit Enhancement: Corporate and personal guarantees; selective use of credit insurance on AP/AR programs
-
Facility Structure: Uncommitted facilities (up to 24 months), transaction-level funding
Our Advantage
We partner with institutional investors to deploy capital into short-duration, asset-backed trade finance.
