Participate in Real-Economy Trade Finance with Strategic Returns
Pilanehurst offers qualified investors the opportunity to participate in our Purchase Order (PO) Funding Pool, supporting African SMEs engaged in confirmed, export-driven transactions. Investors earn a share of the net profit on every funded transaction, with full visibility into the capital cycle and associated controls.
This is a short-term, real-economy investment opportunity that delivers tangible outcomes and measured returns.
How the PO Funding Pool Works
We fund purchase orders issued to vetted suppliers in sectors such as mining, infrastructure, and medical procurement. Funding is provided without collateral, secured instead through the purchase order, contractual flow, and direct buyer settlement to Pilanehurst.
Your capital enables these transactions to complete and in return, you share in the profits.
Return Structure
- Return Model: 30% share of net profit per transaction
- Capital Cycle: Typically 60–90 days per PO
- Investment Term: Per transaction or rolling
- Minimum Investment: USD $500,000 equivalent
- Currency: USD, GBP, or ZAR entry accepted
Risk Controls
- Buyer Cession: Legal right to receive payment directly from the buyer
- Optional Insurance: Available on selected transactions
- Transaction Vetting: Only confirmed, verified POs are considered
- Direct Settlement: Funds flow directly back to Pilanehurst—not the SME
