All Information Subject To Change Without Notice
Greetings!

You may be receiving this for the first time, and if so, welcome. Your name was identified to us as having some involvement in the buying and selling of bank instruments, and we thought this information might be of interest to you. If it is not the case and we've missed the boat entirely, or we were in error, please Unsubscribe at the bottom, and accept our apologies.

G-20     G-20 Actions Expected To Affect Non-Licensed Intermediaries.
 
The financial markets and the world economy continue to face serious global challenges and the severity of the crisis and ongoing uncertainties demonstrate the need for urgent action.
 
At its conclusion on September 25 in Pittsburgh, the G-20 adopted Core Values for Sustainable Economic Activity, which will include those of propriety, integrity, and transparency, and which will underpin the Framework. It took steps to fix the broken regulatory system and started to implement sweeping reforms to reduce the risk that financial excesses will again destabilize the global economy...Where reckless behavior and a lack of responsibility led to crisis, we (the G-20) will not allow a return to banking as usual.
 
Our interpretation is that this will rapidly and forcefully extend into the underbelly of non-licensed, untrained and ethically-challenged intermediary transactions being perpetrated on the movement of bank paper such as bank guarantees and medium term notes, and the fraud, misrepresentation and confusion which has been the bane of the industry.
 
We welcome this as an overdue, imperative action that will clean house of those who have, intentionally or otherwise, created a field of distrust and dishonesty in the pursuit of personal gain over quality of financial relationships.
 
It could not happen soon enough!

While the prices vary, this is an example of routine opportunities that come to our attention. Prices range all over the map. Your LOI should specify exactly what you are looking for.  You stand a better chance of successfully buying if you match your procedures to the seller's: At least to get the principal-to-principal conversation going where the real negotiation happens.

For The Principal Owner Of BG's and MTN's
_________________________________________

 
If you own paper and would entertain selling it, we invite you to email your model LOI with the instrument specifications. In the event someone is looking for something fitting the description, please include your desired procedures.  The list of people potentially interested in speaking with you about your paper(s) is ever- growing. As an information exchange service, we put the Principal players together and stand aside. We deal only with the Principal or the Authorized Agent/Rep.
 
If you need to see some sample formats of documents that you would typically use-- again for informational purposes only- we have prepared a set that can be yours for
downloading here.

 
If You Do NOT Yourself Own A Instrument, Please Do Not Reply To This! This is For Owner's Only.
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

REFERNCE : JS
 

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

Q and A
 
Why should a MT103/23 
  NOT Be An Issue
For A Buyer?

It is true that some sellers will use the buyer's MT103/23 to take down the paper. My question to the buyer is, "So What?"


If the buyer is getting paper at the price he accepts, and then gets the paper, why should he care that the seller is actually being smart and using Other People's Money to make a deal happen? 

Buyer's claim they don't want to 'finance' the purchase of the paper that they want, but the truth is they are already financing it within in the price at which the seller will sell. 


Again, So What?


The objective for the buyer is to buy the paper. What happens before he gets his paper really isn't his business.
 
________________________
Compare it to ordering a custom built car from a car dealer.
________________________

The car hasn't been built yet-- but the Buyer is STILL required to make a deposit before the manufacturer builds it.

The car dealership isn't using its money to make the order happen, but he is making a profit on the sale. It's exactly the same business process.

The Bottom Line is: Did you get the paper that you wanted at an acceptable price?
After all, isn't that all that really matters?

Waiting For ISIN's And CUSIP's Guarantee Failure To Buy  

Running After Train
(this is a reprint from a prior issue)
ATTENTION BUYERS!
 
Over the last weeks, many buyers have requested or insisted on seeing information on specific instruments before they will make their interest known.
 
This flawed approach to buying FAILS NEARLY EVERY TIME! Why?
 
Since analogies are a great way to illustrate a point, imagine that you want to ride the train (i.e.- buy an instrument).
 
All day long, trains keep coming and going (instruments for sale), and they are ridden (i.e.- bought), by other riders who have already presented their tickets (i.e.-been accepted as a bonafide buyer by the seller), from the ticketmaster (the trade platform manager).
 
The reason so many deals never make it is because you cannot wait for a train to come into the station before you decide if you want to ride it!
 
You first have to buy a ticket (present your LOI, CIS, Passport, LOA, etc) so the ticketmaster (the seller) can OK you to climb aboard the next train.
 
Once you have bought your 'ticket', you are now entitled to stand on the platform waiting for the next train (instrument) that is the right one to jump on (take down).
 
The trains are always coming and going, but the ticketmaster won't allow you to board an oncoming train until you have been cleared and shown your capacity to buy.
 
When you ask to see a specific instrument's identification, you are asking about a train that is already in the station and is in the midst of being boarded (taken down) by another buyer.
 
Too late! You have to be timed so that the seller has your ticket BEFORE the next train comes down the track. 
 
Also, when the buyer wants to see ISIN and CUSIP numbers, they are again asking about a train that is about to leave the station.
 
If you know you are going to ride the train, get your ticket (documents) punched so you can jump on the next train coming. Be prepared.
 
When the train has pulled into the station, you don't have time to first get your ticket and get on board. That's why you may have found that paper you were interested in has been sold out from under you.
Timing is everything, and being on the platform when the train comes in is the only way to buy your paper.

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.
Sender is not a licensed United States Securities Dealer, Broker, US Investment Advisor or Commodities Trader.
