What is going wrong

The problem is usually fit, structure or presentation.

01

Banks cannot understand the transaction chain

We map entities, buyers, sellers, brokers, goods, documents, payment instructions and expected account activity.

02

Large cross border payments trigger repeated review

We help prepare the supporting commercial and compliance evidence before transactions reach the bank.

03

One jurisdiction or counterparty blocks the whole setup

We identify where the risk sits and which banking routes may be capable of reviewing the actual corridor.

How we help

A focused route from blocked to review ready.

Unblocked Finance is an independent consultancy. We prepare the case, identify relevant partners and support the process without pretending provider approval is guaranteed.

01

Map the trade flow

We document ownership, counterparties, commodities, contracts, logistics, jurisdictions, currencies and payment values.

02

Strengthen the file

We organise corporate, trade, source of funds, sanctions and counterparty information for provider review.

03

Approach relevant banks

We identify potential account and payment partners, then support the introduction and onboarding process.

Who this is for

Complex can still be clear.

We work best with lawful businesses that are prepared to disclose the real model, ownership, transaction flow and compliance position.

Straight answers

Before we speak.

Can you help with sanctioned countries or parties?+

No. We do not help evade sanctions or provider restrictions. All parties and transactions must be lawful and transparently disclosed.

What documents do banks normally request?+

Requirements vary, but providers may review contracts, invoices, bills of lading, counterparties, source of funds, ownership and the commercial purpose of payments.

Can you guarantee that a bank accepts each transaction?+

No. Banks retain independent discretion over onboarding and individual payments. We improve preparation and provider fit, not certainty.
