UNZ Commercial Broker and Trillium Finance have joined forces to deliver robust, compliant, and efficient SBLC solutions to clients worldwide. This partnership combines UNZ's deep commercial brokerage expertise with Trillium's specialised financial instrument capabilities — resulting in faster issuance, stronger banking relationships, and greater structuring flexibility for our mutual clients.

What is an SBLC?
A Standby Letter of Credit is a bank-issued instrument that serves as a financial guarantee in favour of a beneficiary. It is widely used to support trade finance, project funding, credit enhancement, and contractual performance. Through our partnership with Trillium Finance, an SBLC can be leased for a defined period or purchased outright, depending on the purpose and duration of your transaction — with expert guidance at every step.
SBLC Leasing
Through our collaboration with Trillium Finance, we arrange SBLC leasing for clients who require a temporary financial guarantee without deploying large capital upfront.
Typical applications include:
- Trade finance and commodity transactions
- Project funding and infrastructure support
- Credit enhancement for loans
- Performance and payment guarantees
Key highlights:
- Issuance from top-tier international banks via our joint network
- Lease tenure typically 1 year + extension options
- Monetization structures available through approved providers
- Secure SWIFT bank-to-bank communication (MT760)
SBLC Purchase
For clients requiring long-term financial backing, UNZ and Trillium jointly facilitate the outright purchase of SBLCs, giving you full ownership and greater control over the instrument.
Advantages:
- Full ownership of the SBLC
- Long-term validity with renewable options
- Greater control and flexibility over usage
- Stronger balance-sheet positioning
Purchased SBLCs are structured by our combined team to align precisely with your specific project or corporate requirements.
Monetization Support
Where required, UNZ and Trillium Finance jointly assist with SBLC monetization through recognised financial channels. Monetization terms depend on the issuing bank, instrument format, and transaction purpose. All monetization is handled strictly within banking and compliance frameworks, with both teams ensuring full due diligence.
