Financial Instruments

How We Structure Payments

Sinan works with the full range of international trade finance instruments — providing flexibility for buyers and sellers while protecting all parties at every stage of a deal.

01

Letter of Credit

The standard instrument for cross-border commodity trade. Sinan issues and receives documentary LCs through UAE's major banking partners, providing payment security for both parties.

02

Standby Letter of Credit

Performance-backed financing for long-term supply contracts and established counterparties — activated only in the event of non-performance, so day-to-day trade operations remain unencumbered when both sides perform.

03

Bank Guarantee

Bid bonds, performance bonds, and advance payment guarantees issued through our banking relationships to underwrite trade commitments and provide counterparty assurance.

04

Documentary Collection

Faster and more cost-effective than a full LC — bank-intermediated document exchange suitable for established trading relationships with lower counterparty risk.

05

Open Account

Available to vetted, long-standing counterparties with a proven payment track record. Extended on a case-by-case basis following a completed due diligence review.

06

Advance Payment

Full or partial upfront payment terms accepted and issued depending on deal structure, commodity type, and counterparty profile — with written acknowledgement and confirmation issued on receipt.

Regulatory Compliance

Built to International Standards

Sinan maintains a rigorous compliance framework aligned with UAE Ministry of Economy requirements, FTA regulations, and FATF guidelines. Every counterparty is screened before a trade relationship is established.

We conduct full KYC and AML checks on buyers, sellers, and intermediaries — and maintain records in line with UAE commercial law retention requirements. No transaction proceeds without a cleared counterparty profile.

AML Screening

All counterparties screened against international sanctions lists and AML watchlists prior to engagement.

Sanctions Compliance

Trade routes, counterparties, and cargo types are verified against OFAC, UN, and UAE sanctions frameworks.

KYC Verification

Full know-your-counterparty documentation collected and retained for all trading relationships.

UAE FTA Registered

Registered with the UAE Federal Tax Authority. TRN: 104231634700003. VAT-compliant invoicing on all transactions.
