Trade Solutions
Trade Solutions and specialised trade structuring — from eligibility and feasibility, through execution, documentation and compliance, to drawdown.
What trade solutions does Wisemann Capital provide?
Wisemann Capital provides seven trade solutions: direct domestic trade within the UAE, direct international trade, joint ventures and partnerships, pre-shipment facilitation, post-shipment facilitation, trade instruments facilitation, and end-to-end trade management. Each is delivered through a single point of contact, alongside or independently of the firm's own commodity trading.
Wisemann Capital was created out of first-hand experience in physical trade, to offer the services a trade depends on through a single window rather than across a chain of intermediaries.
A physical trade is rarely lost on price. It is lost in execution: a supplier who was never verified, a certificate nobody arranged, a credit that asks for documents the shipment will not produce, a counterparty screened once and never again. Trade Solutions take each of those stages — before loading, after loading, and the instruments and contracts around them — and manage them as one transaction.
One point worth stating plainly: where a trade relies on bank instruments, those instruments are issued by licensed banks. We facilitate: we structure, document and manage the process. We do not issue instruments, we do not guarantee that any bank will approve an application, and we do not arrange instruments detached from a real underlying trade.

Common questions
Frequently asked
Do I need to trade a commodity with Wisemann Capital to use Trade Solutions?
No. Each trade solution can be engaged on its own, for trades in which Wisemann Capital is not a party. Where we are also buying or selling the commodity, the two are run together through the same point of contact.
What is the difference between pre-shipment and post-shipment facilitation?
Pre-Shipment Facilitation covers everything before goods load — supplier verification, inspection, certification and permits. Post-Shipment Facilitation covers everything after — document presentation, destination clearance, discharge, claims and settlement.
Does Wisemann Capital issue bank instruments?
No. Letters of credit, standby credits and guarantees are issued by licensed banks. Through Trade Instruments Facilitation we structure the instrument against the underlying trade, prepare the documentation and manage the process with the issuing bank.
Can you work on trades within the UAE as well as cross-border?
Yes. Direct Domestic Trade covers trade within the UAE, structured around free zone and mainland rules, and Direct International Trade covers import and export across borders.
How is an engagement priced?
Per engagement, against the scope agreed — which stages we manage, the commodity, the route and the documentation involved. Indicative terms are shared under a live enquiry once we understand the trade.
