Stenn Closes New $200 Million Programme to Expand Digital Trade Finance Services
LONDON, May 11, 2020, /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Stenn International Ltd., [https://stenn.com/ ] a data and financial technology 
company that delivers innovative online solutions for buyers and sellers in the 
global supply chains, announced today that it has closed a new $200 million 
financing facility from Crayhill Capital Management LP [https://crayhill.com/ ] 
("Crayhill"), a New York-based private credit manager and asset-based lender. 
The facility complements Stenn's existing award-winning accounts receivable 
securitisation programme, which provides financing to companies engaged in 
international trade.

The new programme, Stenn Direct Funding, carries a sizeable accordion feature 
and is structured to ease access to working capital for new and existing 
clients via Stenn's online funding technology. This new facility will help 
provide liquidity and cash flow management to global companies affected by the 
coronavirus pandemic.

Founded in 2015, Stenn provides agile financing for international trade across 
a range of industries, helping to address the $1.5 trillion 'trade finance gap' 
identified by the International Chamber of Commerce as a significant unmet need 
in global trade financing.

Greg Karpovsky, Founder of Stenn, commented: "We are delighted to deepen our 
financing partnership with Crayhill at a time when companies trading 
internationally urgently need access to liquidity to resume trade. Stenn is 
uniquely positioned to support its global client base at this time. Our 
long-term strategy is to expand our client base and global footprint  by 
building scalable digital funding solutions and forging strong relationships 
with capital partners like Crayhill."

Josh Eaton, Managing Partner of Crayhill, commented: "We are pleased to expand 
upon and strengthen our partnership with the Stenn team. The company is 
financially strong and rapidly growing, with an eye on innovation both in their 
capital programmes and service delivery. The Stenn Direct Funding programme 
bolsters Stenn's market-leading position in international trade finance."

Chris Rigby, Global Head of Finance & Capital Markets at Stenn, commented: 
"This new asset-backed programme provides Stenn with considerable incremental 
financing capacity on a committed basis, while serving to expand significantly 
Stenn's product suite and jurisdictional reach. The programme itself is highly 
flexible and provides Stenn with a scalable and user-friendly direct route to 
market over the long-term."
