When direct trading is appropriate

Direct trading suits transactions where a firm commercial position, clear payment structure and defined shipment window are more useful than an introduction. It typically requires a well-defined specification, evidenced material and a destination where import eligibility is not in question.

AceComex reviews each opportunity on commercial merit. Where the risk profile, documentation position or specification clarity is insufficient, the transaction is not progressed.
