Today (Thursday Sept 10) is RESET day. Although talk of this has been going around for a few weeks, getting a straight answer from those 'in the know' is like pulling teeth from an angry saber tooth tiger. I'm sure we will be reading about this-- or not-- soon. Still have not been able to get the specifics as to what that means, so whatever is (or has happened) today will be left to the mainstream business media.

Placing Cash, a Bank Guarantee, or MTN
Directly Into a PPP WITHOUT MOVING IT!
 

MTNSPrivate Placement Programs are still around, and they range from 24 hour "Bullet" programs, to 40-weeks, and in-between. If you are the owner of an instrument that is bonafide and can be verified, that instrument could be moved into the trader's account and start profiting the owner. In some program manager's world, if the money is in a bank where the program manager does business, funds may not have to move at all. That is only up to the program manager to discuss with the owner-principal. 

In order to get started, the Instrument Owner sends a Letter of Request, which includes the language that they have not been solicited by the PPP Manager in any way. Upon clearing the path with this letter, the Program Manager (PM) will communicate directly with the principal owner. There are no others allowed to be in these conversations as they contain sensitive and proprietary information to each party.
 
Each program manager has his or her own specific strategy. We are fortunate enough to be in touch with a number of them. Shoot us an email for more info. info@pccfunding.com

Collateral for Credit Facilities

Five Million US Dollar Minimum
 

Do you have a transaction for which you require collateral?

Product Overview

We've just unveiled a new product to the marketplace which does not put the client's initial funds at risk.
 
  • No funds are released from escrow until after an acceptable instrument has been received by the client's lending institution from an acceptable issuing bank.
  • These instruments may be used as the primary and/or only source of collateral for a credit facility.
  • Do you have a transaction for which you are trying to obtain funding through your lender and need a source of collateral that's safe and reliable?
  • The issuance fees are not put at risk, they are simply put into any mutually acceptable third party escrow account where they will stay until acceptable collateral is delivered as agreed;
  • We may even be able to allow an acceptable bank pay order for the payment of fees contingent upon delivery of acceptable collateral.
  • Our bank communicates with your bank prior to deployment and execution of agreements. We are not leasing or joint venturing to provide assets, we are issuing our clients' lender an irrevocable guarantee of principal and interest paid at maturity.
  • The bank instruments can be used for any legitimate, legal financial transaction where a client has the ability to get a loan with his lender with acceptable collateral. Read below for additional details.


    Requirements

    1. Client must have their bank financing arranged conditionally upon the presentation of acceptable collateral from an acceptable bank.

    2. Client must provide a conditional commitment letter from their bank addressed to the client (sample format downloadable)

    3. Client must have 1.75% of the required instrument.

     
    Steps

    1. Client applies to POF

         a. Client provides POF letter of intent

         b. Client provides POF a completed application and supporting documents

    2. POF issues documents to the client

         a. Term sheet

         b. Letter of Intent

         c. Engagement fee request letter

         d.  Sample conditional commitment letter

    3. Client sends $10,000.00 non-refundable engagement fee to POF.

    4. Client sends POF the conditional commitment letter provided by the bank.

    5. Client moves their 1.75% of the required instrument size to an acceptable escrow attorney. Escrowed monies are not released from escrow until after the instrument is delivered.

    6. POF's bank contacts the clients bank at the coordinates provided in the conditional commitment letter.

         a. Banks discuss and come to terms on acceptable instrument text.

         b. Banks discuss and come to terms on acceptable instrument transmission (delivery).

    7. POF orders its bank to initiate and finalize the transaction between the banks.

    8. POF's bank delivers the instrument of principal and interest to the clients bank.

    9. Client's receiving bank receives the previously agreed upon bank debt instrument upon acknowledging its acceptance confirms this with its client and escrow attorney.

    10. Client's 1.75% is released from escrow to POF.

    11. 15 Days from the date of the banks acceptance and acknowledgment of the bank debt instrument, the client releases 6.75% to POF. (Drawn down from new credit line)

    12. Client's bank funds the loan

    13. Client bank deposits the proceeds of the loan into the bank who issued the bank debt instrument or to mutually consented coordinates from which monetary draws will be made by the client in conformity with his transactional requirements.

    14. On the 91st day the client begins making principal and interest payments at LIBOR (+ floating rate*) to POF or to its order until the loan has been paid as agreed.

    15. Client's bank perfects payment on the bank instrument at its maturity date (12 months from its date of issue).



    Footnote:
    *Floating Rate would be determined in review of the transaction after we've received the bank letter and our bank has communicated with the clients' bank.



    Issuing Banks

    1. HSBC in London

    2. HSBC in New York

    3. JP Morgan Chase in New York

    4. Wells Fargo Bank in California



    Pricing is a moderate total of 8.5% for the use of the instrument and on month three the client begins making principal and interest payments at Libor + a floating rate (*Floating Rate would be determined in review of the transaction after we've received the bank letter and our bank has communicated with the clients bank.) There are several benefits to the structure we are now offering.


    1. Once the clients' bank provides the client the conditional commitment letter our bank opens up a line of communication to agree upon instrument type, text and delivery protocols.

    2. Transactions can be as small as $5 million United States Dollars.

    3. You can spend your time with clients that have real closeable transactions, clients do not lose money and we do not lose time spent on clients with no transactions.

    4. Other than the engagement fees which covers expenses of the attorney documentation, initial due diligence, etc., No moneys are released from escrow until the clients bank receives the acceptable collateral from a bank acceptable to them.

    5. There is bank to bank communication by phone, fax and/or Swift prior to entering into a final contract with Provider to make sure POF and the client are not wasting any time or energy.

    6. The client makes no payments to his lender whatsoever.

    7. The instrument can be the primary and/or only collateral used to support the clients credit facility.

    8. The client can get a loan from many different types of creditors to include but not limited to the following.

         a. Banks

              1. Private Banks

              2. Commercial Banks

              3. Retail Banks

              4. Investment Banks

              5. Central Banks

              h. Investment Funds

              i. Pension Funds

How We Work

______________

Rules Of Engagement

 
FIRST RULE:
 
NO PHONE CALLS!!!
 

EMAIL IS THE BEST WAY TO START A CONVERSATION!
 

 SECOND RULE:
 
NO BROKERS OR INTERMEDIARIES WHO ARE NOT DIRECT! NO CHAINS WHATSOEVER!
If The Person You Are Talking To CANNOT WRITE A CHECK OR SIGN A CONTRACT.... Please Do NOT Waste Time. 


Unfortunately, it seems to be a regular occurrence where people claim to have the ability to deliver a product and truly don't... most of the time due to their misrepresentation, some of the time due to circumstances beyond their control.
 
In order to effectively put a Principal buyer together with a specific opportunity, we ask each buyer to complete the
downloadable request form-a "wish list" if you will, for each of the paper they are looking for. 

The more specific the description of the instrument the buyer wants, the closer we can come to finding them what they are looking for. Otherwise, it's like walking into a grocery store filled with thousands of items and asking someone to 'show me what you got'. Waste of Time.
 
As buyers and sellers come together, they can be directed to each other when there is a fit that is close, or exact. If you know where you are going, getting there is a lot easier.
 
For legal reasons as mentioned above, paper sellers want to see the Buyer prepare either a Letter of Request or an LOI.

Some Buyers ask that the Seller provides some kind of letter or ISIN or CUSIP numbers. What they don't realize by asking that is they ask the Seller to SOLICIT an offer. Until a Seller has cleared the Buyer and his/her money, and provided a non-solicitation statement, the Seller can be looking at fines or jail time.

The Sellers are very cautious about this, even if the particular instrument is not subject to Solicitation rules. They tend to err on the side of caution.
 
This opens the door for a conversation once the seller has had a chance to look over the buyer's request and do a quick due diligence check. It helps even more if a Non-Solicitation Letter or clause is included to better ensure compliance.
 
Because the owner of an instrument is prohibited by law from soliciting, or appearing to solicit, someone to buy their paper, all initial interest in it  must FIRST start from the buyer.
 
The seller cannot send out a LOI or other documents without first having been approached by the buyer prospect.
 
So many buyers want to see the seller's LOI first, they don't realize they are actually asking for the seller to break the law!
 
This is many times the reason a buyer is unsuccessful.
 
Without even knowing it, they have demonstrated a lack of understanding of the manner in which a transaction is facilitated, and sent that message to the seller, who naturally will decline any reply or response.
 
The role that I play is to facilitate the information about a buyer to an owner or seller of the paper desired, which helps overcome the issue of putting the seller at legal risk for being seen as soliciting.
 
If I am not acting as the  principal in the deal, simply providing the opportunity for a meeting of the minds with a buyer/seller is much like posting a "Want to Buy" notice, and having that delivered personally directly to a possible opportunity.
 
As of last week, I am DIRECT to several platforms managers and owners as well as certain banks. I am connected generally either to the provider's representative, or rarely no more than 1 away. 
 
In the case where other intermediaries might be involved in bringing the end buyer to the table, they must stand back immediately and allow for direct conversations to be facilitated with the buyer principal. However, if there is a chain of more than one broker between the Principal and you, we will most likely not be interested in discussing it.
 
Group conference calls and broker interference in any way automatically kill the deal. If there is no one on the phone who can sign a contract or write a check, there is no reason to talk.
 
Compensation is generally broken into two categories: Full Share and Referral Group.
 
A Full Share of a box may be shared by those who are doing the heavy lifting in a deal, versus those would be considered a Referral Fee recipient-making a phone call or email to introduce the parties is not an entitlement to a full share of a box.
Thank you for reading this. If this newsletter does not apply to your interests or business, please Unsubscribe at the bottom.
 
If this DOES have value to you, please share it with other reputable people who are principals in the business.
 
Sincerely,

Got Gold?
Get Trading! 
 ____________________________
 
Our Principal Platform Partner for whom we are a papered principal facilitator has come up with a way to help Gold Owners ( this is EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE OWNER OF AU, NOT MANDATES).
 
We have a very unique opportunity to be involved with a sizable number of Gold (AU) Transactions. 
 
Many people cannot sell their gold without total proof of the Purchase Price "upfront".
 
We can do the following for the Gold owners (no Mandates please):
 
Nearly everyone has their gold in some type of banking facility.
 

The "holder" of the gold must issue a SKR (Safe Keeping Receipt) for full value.

We take the SKR, place a Credit Line against it, put it into trade, and from the proceeds, the owner's escrow account receives 80% of the profit each week until such time as 100% of the market value is in the Trust Account plus an additional 15%.  He may remain in the trade for the balance of the forty weeks and receive an additional 30% per week.

5% of the proceeds goes to the trade platform

15% of the proceeds goes into a second escrow account for the Seller..to make a total of 115% of present market value of the AU.

Under these procedures, the Buyer receives, in his escrow account, 100%
of the purchase price plus the funds in the 15% account and the trade continues for the balance of the year. 

The owner of the gold gets 30% of the trade profit for the balance of the year.
 
The Gold is purchased at 115% of the market value (no discount).  None of the gold moves until all of the money is in the Escrow Account.  Then the Gold is exchanged with the Escrow Account and the Seller winds up with 115% for his metal, plus he receives 30% of the profit of the trade for the balance of the year.
 
The Seller must complete the LOI/RWA (send for it by email request) attached hereto on his letterhead and return to me, the undersigned.
 
Seller will be furnished with the name that the LOI/RWA is to be addressed to upon my receiving the attached and notarized NCND.

How To NEVER Get A Seller To Respond  

In the automotive industry, salespeople are taught to recognize 'tire kickers'-- those people who will ask questions but really have no intention of buying anything. Usually, once it becomes evident that they have a 'tire kicker' on their hands, they move away and pay no further attention.

What is astounding is how many Buyer's for paper fall into the 'tire kicker' category by their actions. Here are a couple of reasons why a seller will ignore and not even dignify a 'tire kicker' with a response:

1. The Buyer (or his "representative") will ask a question about a particular procedure that he would like. On the surface, you might say, 'that's a reasonable question-- why can't I get an answer before I might send in my documents?"

Put yourself in the Seller's shoes for a minute. In the course of his day, the Seller is bombarded with the same questions dozens of times. The Seller doesn't have any interest in answering questions. 

In fact, many of the  Providers and Sellers have given us Standing Orders: DO NOT BRING A QUESTION TO ME UNLESS IT IS ACCOMPANIED BY THE BUYERS COMPLIANCE DOCUMENTS AND LETTER OF REQUEST.

It is a matter of courtesy and respect. Something that is sorely missing in the high-faluting world of high finance-- at least those in the intermediary pool, and yes, some Buyers and even Sellers.

If you are a serious Buyer and you want to set yourself apart from the 'tire kickers' out there, submit your Letter of Request, Client Information Sheet and your Passport, and THEN ask your questions. You'll be given the courtesy of a response because you have shown your intentions, and not to waste time.

2. A Buyer insists on speaking to the Seller before he will even submit anything. For the same reason above, the Seller isn't sitting around waiting for the Buyer to want to chat. How can a Seller know if he is wasting his time unless he has the Buyer's papers in hand and can respond intelligently?

Again, this is a sure sign of a 'tire kicker'. And, again, as direct representatives to the Seller, we are given our orders.

There is a legal principle here that each individual party in a transaction must remember:

If It Isn't In Writing, It Doesn't Exist.
 
 

Why This Newsletter?

pccfundinglogo

As a communicator of over 36 years, the need for open discussion became apparent to me when I entered the business of facilitating relationships.
 
My philosophy is simple: when you create a good, clear and honest relationship between people, transactions happen.
 
I have seen the exact opposite behavior fail time and time again. 

This includes brokers who do nothing more than leech onto a potential transaction but could care less about the long-term benefits of developing a solid relationship, to buyers who end up empty-handed because of their inflexibility to work with a seller. And, of course, 'sellers' who end up having nothing to sell. This world is insane and destined to fail 99% of the time, until someone puts a screeching halt and says, 'ENOUGH!'.
_________________________ 
 
Trust is always the foundation of a true, strong 
 relationship.
 _______________________


That holds particularly true when we are dealing with the financial underpinnings of our global economies.

There is just too much at stake to allow untrusted players to be involved. And, that's why most deals that are done are completed behind closed doors, privately, and quietly.
 
Integrity and Accountability are also ingredients of a successful relationship that spawns business  transactions.
 
Do what you say you will do. Better yet, don't TELL me, SHOW me. How we operate as human beings in the world of high finance ultimately decides how successful we will be.
 
I hope that this newsletter, brought to you occasionally as there is something to talk about or share, will provide a common basis for the creation of the type of relationship that makes for fertile ground in which deals can happen.
 
Enjoy, and please contribute your thoughts as well. I don't know everything-- learned that a long time ago. I am pleased to act as a medium for facilitating direct relationships between buyers and sellers.
 
And now that I am also a principal facilitator to a number of trade platform managerss, I hope to set the bar higher for those who will work in this industry in the professional, competent way it needs to be worked.
