Practical notes

Foreign currency access is a planning issue and should be addressed in the funding structure.

Stock control and warehousing arrangements often determine whether a facility is possible.

Clear group ownership and audited accounts materially improve terms.

Questions

Is foreign currency funding available?

Yes for exporters and for transactions with hard currency receipts, subject to prevailing regulation.

What security is typically required?

Control over stock, assignment of receivables and, on smaller facilities, personal guarantees.
