The Situation
The Commercial Challenge
The client required greater flexibility in managing working capital while maintaining reliable access to internationally sourced commodities.
The solution needed to improve supplier cash flow, provide extended payment terms for the buyer and integrate into existing trading arrangements without creating unnecessary operational complexity or disrupting established supplier relationships.
The Approach
Falcon's Solution
Falcon structured a Flash Title transaction that enabled goods to be purchased directly from approved suppliers before import into the destination market.
Acting as principal, Falcon assumed legal ownership of the goods before immediately selling them to the client under a Master Sale Agreement with extended payment terms.
The programme mirrored the commercial terms already agreed between buyer and supplier, allowing both parties to continue operating within familiar contractual frameworks while benefiting from improved working capital and greater financial flexibility.
