Trade Finance
Access to International Markets
In collaboration with partner banks and financial platforms, Nieriko Traders supports its African clients in obtaining and using the financial instruments essential for accessing international market transactions.
Letter of Credit (LC)
A banking instrument guaranteeing payment to the seller upon presentation of compliant documents. We guide our clients through the issuance, negotiation, and management of documentary letters of credit (irrevocable, confirmed) with our partner banks.
Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC)
A secondary-recourse bank guarantee activated only in the event of buyer default. The SBLC strengthens the financial credibility of our African clients with international sellers and platforms, opening access to large-scale transactions.
Bank Guarantee (BG)
A bank's commitment to cover a client's financial obligations in the event of non-performance. Used to secure supply contracts, tenders, and commodity transactions.
Swift MT760 & MT799
Standardised Swift messages used for interbank transmission of guarantees and letters of credit. Our banking partners issue and receive these messages to validate and secure international financial commitments.
