Introduction and ask for help/support to discuss a use case

Dear Centrifuge Team,
I just registered Centrifuge some minutes ago, and like to talk with you about the possibility of setting up a fund with you. The company I work for might be interesting in this alternative funding solution.

Could please someone get in contact with me to have a conversation of how it might be possible?

Kind regards
BEN

Hi @Ben_Riverty, thank you for your post and welcome to the Community!

When you say setting up a fund, do you mean to launch a pool to finance Real World Assets through Centrifuge?

And could you say a couple more words about your proposal?

Cheers!

Hi Benjaimin!

Welcome to Centrifuge! First of all I would like to recommend you to take a look into the Pool Onboarding Proposal-process because Centrifuge is not the right platform to raise funds in the traditional sense. The post shared might a useful check to clarify if Centrifuge is the right platform for your company.

If this is the case, please go ahead with the POP template & criteria

In case of any questions do not hesitate to contact us in Discord or continue here in the thread :handshake:

Hey Tjure, thank you so much.

I will familiarize myself with the posts. Since I am not experienced at all and would speak to other people in the company, I am wondering whether it is common to have a call or Vico to talk in person about the requirements and process. I am in discord as well, maybe to continue the conversation there.
THANKS
BEN

Hey Rhano, thanks for your swift reply.

Yes, the company I work for, more specifically the finance department, is currently thinking of alternative refinance sources next to our credit lines.
We have an appetite for a kind of short term invoice financing,

  • term between 30-90 days,
  • portfolio volume x€ mio.,
  • default rate below 1%

Since the company and group I work for is rather new to DeFi or Crypto, Web3 in general there isnt to much knowledge available, paired with some worries.
I will have a look the posts Tjure recommended, and like to ask you the same. Would you be open to continue the conversation in Discord maybe even having a ViCo?
Thanks
BEN

Thank you for the clarification @Ben_Riverty.

I am not the right person to discuss your queries with as I am not part of the Business Development but I can clarify a couple of things.

We currently have a POP (Pool Onboarding Process) that @Tjure07 just linked to above but there is a V2 on its way and we recently had a call where we discussed what it could look like and you can read about some of the input provided to that in this post (there is also a link to the call in this post).

Maybe @ctcunning or @roollie can answer some of the questions you might have.

Cheers!

Ben,

It would be great to have more content and insight into the company through the Forum here. Thanks for all your interest.

Good morning @ctcunning, hence I am just evaluating the various possiblities existing to refinance our activities, I would prefer not giving too much company insights publicly at this moment.
I am still collecting informations about possible scenarios and partners to inform the Heads of Risk and Finance.

We have a need to re-finance xx€ mio. portfolio on an recurring basis.
Our default rates are rather low, less than 1% (POD x LGD) of outstanding portfolio at any given time.
Strong experience in debt collection and consumer scoring.
Consumer credits 30-90d outstanding

What else would you need or like to know?

BEN

No worries at all, I think that’s enough for now given you’re still in the evaluation stage and exploring possibilities.
