HOW ZERO CIF WORKS

Bank facilitates the Seller to export

Seller is given a line of credit

The receiving bank extends a credit line to the Seller to cover taxes, shipping, and royalties, separating these costs from the buyer's financial guarantee. This is an arrangement between the Seller and Bank and your

instrument is not used for this or any other purpose.

Seller ships to Buyer's destination

Gold is shipped to your destination port of choice. You stay in your home country. Buyer clears and assays the gold. Payment is confirmed, and ownership is transferred.

Buyer locks in a financial commitment to the Seller

We ask the buyer to demonstrate willingness and ability to transact. Therefore we ask:

Submission of a SBLC, DLC, Escrow or LC from a the Buyer's bank (top-tier) to the BANK of the Seller (top-tier)

Please note the instrument is not submitted to the seller and is not monetised

Bank locks in a financial commitment to the Buyer

We ensure the cost you incur for raising an instrument is underwritten.

The receiving bank issues a Performance Bond to the issuing bank, providing 100% security in case of non-performance for any reason whatsoever!.

Exclusively for Buyers with Banking Instruments

Perfect for entities capable of furnishing SBLCs or Blocked Funds as a commitment tool without immediate capital outlay.

UAE Investors

Bank Guarantees are particularly well-suited for buyers in the UAE, offering a compliant method to demonstrate transaction readiness.

No African Monetary Risk

The receiving banks are top-tier institutions in Europe, America, or Asia, ensuring funds do not enter the African monetary system and mitigating region-specific risks.

Bank Due Diligence

The issuing bank’s confidence, demonstrated by granting a Performance Bond and credit line, acts as a pre-vetting of the Seller, saving you from costly background checks.
