Trade finance, with continuous counterparty visibility
Invoice factoring, receivables and supply-chain credit with counterparty, dilution and concentration tracking.
Trade finance is short-duration, high-velocity credit. Receivables turn over in weeks. Obligor concentration can build silently. Dilution rates from credit notes and disputes erode yield if untracked. Most funds run this in transaction systems that surface activity but not portfolio risk. Reuben AI sits over the transaction layer with structured counterparty exposure, dilution tracking, concentration monitoring and recovery analytics.
Why this asset class needs a different operating model
Obligor concentration builds silently. A single buyer can become the dominant credit exposure across dozens of invoices. Without portfolio-level look-through the concentration is invisible until something fails.
Dilution erodes yield. Credit notes, disputes and short payments are the silent drag on advertised yield. They need to be tracked per obligor and per programme.
Velocity hides risk. High turnover masks build-up of stretched payment terms, deteriorating credit quality and concentration breaches.
Recoveries need structured workflow. When a receivable fails, the path from dispute to collection to write-off needs structured tracking and lessons-learned that flow back to underwriting.
How Reuben AI covers it
Counterparty exposure ledger
Obligor-level exposure aggregated across receivables, programmes and originators. Concentration limits enforced at fund and sleeve level.
Dilution and yield tracking
Credit notes, disputes, short payments and payment delays tracked per obligor and per programme with realised vs underwritten yield reconciliation.
Real-time concentration limits
Single-name, sector, geography and tenor limits computed continuously with automatic alerts on breach or near-breach.
Recovery and collections workflow
Failed receivables move through structured dispute, demand and write-off workflows with lessons-learned feeding back into the underwriting layer.
Originator and programme monitoring
Performance of each origination channel and programme tracked separately with realised vs expected loss reconciliation.
