WE ARE KILO CAPITAL
We know commodity finance.
Kilo Capital is a customer-centric, specialty finance firm with a core expertise in financing above-ground commodities. Our mission is to deliver to our middle market customers the same financing solutions typically offered only by large financial institutions to blue chip enterprises. Leveraging our roots in precious metals finance, we support companies with capital tied up in commodity-based inventories by offering tailored financing and supply & pricing solutions that conventional banks just can’t.
For decades our team has worked with corporate borrowers of all sizes, bringing tailored financing in support of commodity-based inventory deep into the supply chain. We understand the challenges inherent in operating a commodity-heavy business, and we leverage our experience to deliver sensible structuring decisions.
Our goal is to forge decades-long customer relationships, and we do that by always moving quickly to deliver responsive solutions.
What We Do
Kilo helps commodity-intensive businesses thrive.
We tailor our inventory financing, and commodity pricing & supply agreements to each company’s unique needs. Our focus is on North American, middle-market companies that process, store, or consume commodity and commodity-adjacent inventories. We finance metals, food and agricultural commodities, and energy inventories.
As trusted participants in the precious metals and specialty finance industries for over 20 years, we apply the traditional inventory finance tools - commodity leasing, inventory finance, repurchase agreements and secured loans, along with bespoke pricing and physical supply programs to form our foundational services.
We aim to improve both capital and operational efficiencies by releasing cash tied up in inventory all while optimizing access to needed commodities. We partner in a way that most banks can’t or won’t, through competitive advance rates; ancillary service offerings including sourcing and transfers; as well as storage and trading.
Value Delivered
Challenge
- Commodity inventory often requires a large amount of cash that is often tied up for extended periods of time
- Ensuring adequate inventory and certainty of supply diverts capital from other important areas of growth or efficiency
- Bank lines don’t often advance very much money against commodity inventory to small and medium enterprises
- The volatility of input costs become a significant driver of profitability, but the sophisticated resources required to effectively hedge these costs are high
Solution
- Kilo Capital will offer higher advance rates, allowing you to borrow more money against your commodity inventory
- Use our balance sheet to build reserves, and store commodities
- Mitigate volatile input price risk by purchasing your commodity inventory at the same time you price the sale to your end customer
- Let us be your outsourced, professional capital markets team who can hedge your risk so you can focus on adding value in other ways.
