LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, May 2, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Artis Trade Invest are pleased to announce the latest investment in their credit-insured trade finance investment programme, through their fund manager and a DeFi liquidity pool on Mode Network.

This launch marks a significant step forward in bridging private credit origination with the innovative capabilities of blockchain technology.

The ‘Arjan Pool’, a lending transaction on the Atlendis platform in collaboration with Cicada Partners, provides financing to support short-term credit-insured trade finance activities targeting the local Spanish medical and pharma market.

Enhanced Investment Structure

The ‘Arjan Pool’ features a $6 million line of credit with a 180-day maturity, overcollateralized with a portfolio of trade finance receivables insured by an investment grade-rated insurer (Moody's rating A3) in a dedicated SPV, Arjan Trade SPV LLC. This structure is further supported by robust portfolio and financial covenants to optimise risk-adjusted return.

Innovative Collaboration with Mode Network

The integration with Mode Network, an Ethereum Layer 2 solution, plays a crucial role in enhancing the accessibility and efficiency of the ‘Arjan Pool’. Mode Network leverages the Optimism framework to create an on-chain economy that rewards network participation through various economic mechanisms, including a dynamic airdrop system.

Robust Underwriting by Cicada Partners

The integrity and diligence of Cicada Partners are fundamental to the confidence in the ‘Arjan Pool’. Their rigorous underwriting process ensures that each loan meets the highest risk assessment standards. Atlendis leverages its strong track record and extensive expertise in managing credit risks to provide structuring solutions for transactions on the Atlendis platform.

Optimal Risk Management

The Artis Trade Invest programme showcases a strong track record with zero defaults and minimal payment delays, illustrating robust unit economics and growth potential. The SPV structure includes multiple layers of protection, such as direct access to the originator’s trade blotter and stringent borrowing base criteria.

Inclusive Investing: Lower Thresholds, Broader Opportunities

Starting with an accessible minimum investment of just $100, this innovative line of liquidity democratises access to institutional private credit markets. The lower entry barrier allows a broader range of investors to participate in opportunities traditionally reserved for larger institutional investors.

Future-Proof Investment

The ‘Arjan Pool’ is structured as an evergreen facility, designed to enable the renewal and growth of the receivables borrowing base over time. This structure allows operations to be scaled (size can go up to $50 mllion) by leveraging working capital from Atlendis. Lenders benefit from risk-managed origination and a more diversified borrowing base.
