Overview
Large-scale projects frequently require substantial financial resources for construction, procurement, mobilization, and other operational activities. Before suppliers, contractors, or project stakeholders commit to a transaction, they may require evidence that the project sponsor or buyer has access to sufficient financial resources.
In this case, the client required a USD 250 million Proof of Funds to support the execution of a major project and associated material procurement. The financial confirmation was intended to demonstrate the client’s capacity to meet the financial demands associated with the project and strengthen confidence among relevant stakeholders.
Trade Finance Company International coordinated the preparation, documentation, and issuance process, ultimately delivering the POF through both electronic and physical channels.
The transaction presented several requirements that called for careful coordination and structured execution.
High-Value Financial Requirement
At USD 250 million, the requested POF represented a substantial financial capacity requirement. The instrument therefore needed to be handled with precision and appropriate documentation.
Project Execution Requirements
The client required financial confirmation specifically to support project execution and material procurement, making timely availability of the POF important for the project's progression.
Documentation Alignment
The process involved several documents, including revised drafts, a term sheet, agreement, promissory note, and invoices. All documentation needed to be reviewed and aligned before completion.
Issuing Institution Change
During the transaction, the issuing institution was changed from the initially proposed arrangement. This required the documentation and execution process to be updated accordingly without disrupting the transaction.
Dual Delivery Requirement
The client required the completed POF through both email and hard copy, requiring coordination across electronic and physical document delivery.
To address these requirements, Trade Finance Company International applied a structured and closely managed process.
1. Draft Review and Revision
The initial draft was reviewed and subsequently revised to align with the client's requirements. This ensured that the final instrument reflected the intended purpose of supporting project execution and material procurement.
2. Documentation Coordination
Trade Finance Company International coordinated the term sheet, agreement, promissory note, invoices, and proof-of-payment documentation required to move the transaction toward completion.
3. Issuing Bank Transition
The transaction structure was updated to reflect the final issuing institution selected for the transaction. The change was incorporated into the transaction documentation before the final POF was issued.
4. Electronic and Physical Delivery
Once the transaction documents were finalized, the POF was delivered through email and hard copy, ensuring that the client received the financial confirmation in the required formats.
Execution Timeline
The transaction began on April 10, 2026, when the initial draft was sent while fee terms were still being finalized. On April 11, a revised draft was prepared, followed by the circulation of the term sheet, agreement, promissory note, and invoices on April 13.
On April 15, the signed agreement and term sheet, promissory note, and proof of payment were received. At this stage, the transaction was updated to reflect to the final issuing institution and related documentation requirements.
On April 16, 2026, the Proof of Funds was successfully delivered via email and hard copy, completing the transaction and providing the client with the financial confirmation required for its project execution and material procurement activities.
