Why use DFI to identify and arrange financing for the customer?
Answer – DFI is a financial intermediary introducing your deal to competing international funding sources. DFI is not affiliated in any way with the funding sources. This ensures the lowest possible, most competitive offer available for our customers. The benefit of taking the transaction through DFI to the international finance market is access to the most aggressive lending rates available on the international market. For a creditworthy customer with acceptable guarantees, interest rates and repayment terms can be significantly more competitive than available locally. International interest rates often compare very favorably with local rates of 15%, 20%, and sometimes even 25%. DFI offers a competitive financial package together with a solid technical offer. The ability to offer attractive financing to the customer may be the difference in winning or losing a contract.
