London Forfaiting: deferral gains
Article Abstract:
London Forfaiting is a UK provider of trade finance which trades promissory notes, arranges syndicated loans and arranges forfaiting in more than 60 nations. The company is exposed in the short term to rises in interest rates but its book is high-yielding so there is still an inflow of income even when there are difficult trading conditions. The company's forfaiting book has grown by almost 100% over six months. London Forfaiting has a good position in a niche market that is growing.
