This document describes a structured mechanism for optimizing existing investments, enabling investors to generate an additional return without selling their assets, without taking on debt, and without transferring any cash.
This mechanism is based on the temporary blocking of assets owned by the investor, in order to enable the issuance of an international bank financial instrument such as an SBLC (Standby Letter of Credit) or a BG (Bank Guarantee).
The transaction is structured as an optimization tool for existing assets, according to the following principles:
The investor temporarily blocks their assets to enable the issuance of a bank financial instrument used in international structured financial operations.
📌 The transaction is carried out through a financial instrument, not through a cash contribution.
An SBLC (Standby Letter of Credit) or a BG (Bank Guarantee) is an irrevocable banking instrument, internationally recognized, issued by a bank via the SWIFT network (MT760).
Key characteristics
📌 In this investment, the SBLC / BG is an investment vehicle, not a payment or cashing instrument.
Principle
The investor agrees to block all or part of their assets for a standard period of one (1) year and one (1) day, corresponding to the validity period of the issued financial instrument.
The assets remain the exclusive property of the investor throughout the entire operation.
Acceptable asset types
➤ No sale of assets.
➤ No transfer of ownership.
➤ No cash outflow.
The operation accepts financial instruments issued by rated and non-rated banks, subject to:
Contractual return
The investor receives a contractual return ranging between 10% and 40%, determined case-by-case depending on the transaction structure.
📌 The blocked assets and the generated return remain, in all circumstances, the exclusive property of the investor.
Timing of the return payment
The return is not paid at the end of the blocking period.
📌 It is paid within a maximum of ten (10) business days, after:
👉 Upon receipt, the return is immediately available and freely usable by the investor, without any restriction.
The operation is transmitted exclusively in the form of a financial instrument (SBLC / BG) to the beneficiary company.
➡ No cash transfer
➡ The company receives a bank financial instrument
➡ No movement of funds from the investor’s account

Once these checks are completed:
📌 Upon receipt, the return becomes immediately available to the investor, who may use it, reinvest it, or dispose of it freely, independently of the asset-blocking period, which continues until the instrument’s maturity (one year and one day).
This mechanism provides the investor with clear visibility on the payment timeline, as well as rapid liquidity of the return, while maintaining a high level of banking and contractual security.
Contractual commitment of non-call, non-recourse, and total absence of any request for funds.
✅ Summary for the investor
✔ Assets = exclusive property
✔ Return = exclusive property
✔ Return paid within 10 days after MT760
✔ Return freely usable
✔ No fund call
✔ Full contractual protection
“The instrument shall remain in force until its natural maturity and shall be allowed to expire automatically, without tacit renewal and without any specific action required, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties. This obligation is expressly set out and formalized in the contract (DOA / Main Agreement), which clearly, firmly, and irrevocably stipulates that the instrument must be maintained until its term and allowed to expire automatically, without any party, directly or indirectly, proceeding with a call, a drawdown, a claiming, a presentation for payment, a disbursement request, or any similar action.
It is further expressly agreed that no claim, payment instruction, draw notice, or request for mobilization shall be issued against the BG/SBLC during its entire validity period. Consequently, no funds shall be demanded, debited, withheld, transferred, or called under this instrument, and any attempt to call or request payment shall constitute a breach of contract and shall trigger the remedies provided for in the agreement.”
This investment enables the generation of an additional return on existing investments, while maintaining:
📌 The investment return is paid within a maximum of ten (10) business days after receipt of the SWIFT MT760 message (SBLC / BG) and its full bank-to-bank verification.
Upon receipt, the return is immediately available and freely usable by the investor, without any restriction, condition, or subsequent obligation.
The investor may therefore use it, reinvest it, or dispose of it freely, independently of the asset-blocking period.
