Borrowing Base Facilities

Unlock Liquidity with Asset-Backed Lending

Borrowing Base Facilities are a flexible form of working capital finance that allows businesses to unlock funds tied up in their balance sheet. By leveraging eligible assets such as receivables, inventory, and other tangible collateral, companies can gain access to a revolving credit line that grows with their business.

This type of facility is ideal for mid-to-large-sized businesses with significant asset bases that require scalable funding to support growth, seasonal fluctuations, or operational needs.


Key Features:

  • Funding tied to the value of eligible assets (e.g., accounts receivable, inventory)

  • Regular redetermination of facility limits based on asset values

  • Tailored to meet the specific liquidity needs of the borrower

  • Suitable for manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, and other asset-heavy businesses

How It Works:

  1. A business receives a purchase order from a customer.

  2. The PO finance provider pays the supplier directly to manufacture or deliver the goods.

  3. Once the order is fulfilled and the customer pays the invoice, the lender is repaid, and any remaining profit is released to the business.
