Financely Group LLC ("Financely") is pleased to offer a Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC) Issuance Facility to qualified clients. This Term Sheet outlines the terms and conditions under which Financely will issue SBLCs, catering to two distinct scenarios: clients with existing collateral and clients requiring assistance in raising collateral.


Facility Overview:

The SBLC Issuance Facility is designed to support clients' business transactions, providing a financial guarantee to third parties. SBLCs serve as a vital tool in international trade, project financing, and other commercial dealings, enhancing the credibility of the client in the eyes of partners and suppliers.


Issuing Banks:

  • JPMorgan Chase
  • China Construction Bank 


Terms for Clients with Collateral:

  • Collateral Requirement: Clients must pledge collateral valued at a minimum of 35% of the SBLC amount. Acceptable collateral includes cash deposits, marketable securities, real estate, and other tangible assets subject to Financely's approval.
  • SBLC Amount: Minimum issuance of USD 2,000,000.
  • Fees: A one-time issuance fee of 2% of the SBLC amount, payable upon acceptance of this Term Sheet.
  • Interest Rate: Determined based on the risk assessment and capital structure, typically ranging from LIBOR + 6% to 9% annually.
  • Validity Period: SBLCs are typically valid for one year, with the option for renewal subject to review and agreement.


Terms for Clients Without Collateral (Requiring Capital Raising):

  • Capital Raising: Financely will assist in raising the required collateral through its network, involving the creation of an SPV or leveraging existing assets through structured financing solutions.
  • SBLC Amount: Minimum issuance of USD 2,000,000.
  • Fees: A one-time issuance fee of 2% of the SBLC amount plus additional fees associated with the capital raising process, determined based on the complexity and risk involved.
  • Interest Rate on Raised Capital: Determined based on the risk assessment and capital structure, typically ranging from LIBOR + 6% to 9% annually.
  • Validity Period: Same as above, with SBLCs typically valid for one year and renewable.


Security and Collateral Agreement for Capital Raising:

  • Raised Capital Security: Clients will need to provide security over the raised capital, which could include liens on assets, corporate or personal guarantees, or other security interests as deemed acceptable by Financely.
  • Collateral Valuation: Collateral will be appraised by an independent third party to ensure fair market value is attributed and to determine the LTV ratio.


Closing Procedure:

  1. Term Sheet Acceptance: Client accepts the terms outlined herein by contacting Financely.
  2. Due Diligence and Collateral Assessment: Comprehensive review of the client's financial standing, business case, and collateral (if already available).
  3. Capital Raising (if applicable): Execution of strategies to raise the required collateral on behalf of the client.
  4. Execution of Agreements: Signing of definitive agreements detailing the terms of SBLC issuance and collateral arrangement.
  5. Fee Payment: Payment of issuance fees and, if applicable, capital raising fees.
