Transfer Your Credit Limit
Service Description
This service is intended for companies that already have a Sinosure credit limit, but it was booked by a supplier that your company is no longer going to be working with, and you need to transfer the credit limit to another supplier.
Steps for Transferring a Credit Limit:
1. Negotiate with Suppliers
2. Transfer the Credit Limit
Before beginning, we conduct a preliminary analysis to understand the situation better:
1. Collect information about the customer’s suppliers, including the total credit limit, which suppliers currently have credit limits with your company, and the intended recipients of these credit limits.
2. Verify whether the customer’s company is on any blacklists.
3. Check if the company has any outstanding debts with suppliers in China.
After completing the preliminary stage, we proceed with the details of the transaction.
Negotiations with Suppliers
At this stage, Axton Global’s office in China will reach out to your suppliers to discuss the procedure for transferring the credit limit. Our objectives include:
1. Gathering detailed information from the supplier currently holding the credit limit. This includes the insurance policy number and the amount of credit limit booked.
2. Determining whether the supplier is willing to release the credit limit partially or in full.
3. Ensuring the supplier has no objections to transferring the limit.
It’s important to note that in some instances, the supplier with the credit limit may not consent to the transfer. In this case, we proceed with the credit limit transfer through the local Sinosure office without requiring the supplier’s consent.
4. We will also coordinate with the receiving supplier to provide instructions on how to apply for the credit limit transfer.
After negotiations, we will develop a credit limit transfer strategy and present it to our client for approval
Credit limit transfer
During this phase, the Axton Global team undertakes the following actions:
1. Prepares all necessary documentation for transferring the credit limit.
2. Compiles instructions and an application form for the supplier to facilitate the credit limit transfer.
3. Commences the credit limit transfer procedure.
Throughout the process, Axton Global’s China Office liaises with both the relevant Sinosure divisions and the suppliers involved.
If the supplier currently in possession of the credit limit is unwilling to release it:
1. We will prepare and submit a formal complaint to Sinosure
2. We will proceed with a direct transfer of the credit limit, bypassing the consent of the reluctant supplier.

Does Sinosure Pay Money Directly to My Supplier?
No, Sinosure does not pay money directly to your supplier. Instead, the supplier extends trade credit to you on their own, meaning there are no additional financing costs for you. Sinosure provides protection to the supplier against risks associated with offering trade credit, encouraging them to broaden their business by providing flexible payment terms.
Why Should a Supplier Offer Me Trade Credit?
Suppliers are encouraged to offer trade credit as part of China’s strategy to gain a dominant position in international trade. The Chinese government supports this by providing insurance, subsidizing export credits, and creating incentives, including policies tailored for micro and small exporters. Additionally, suppliers face competition both within China and globally, using trade credit as a strategic tool to retain their clients. This competitive environment motivates suppliers to extend trade credits, helping them secure and maintain business relationships.
What if the Supplier Can't Give Me Trade Credit Due to Lack of Funds?
If a supplier is unable to extend trade credit because of financial constraints, Sinosure’s collaboration with major Chinese banks provides a solution. These banks offer export financing for suppliers, backed by a Sinosure guarantee. This means that every Chinese exporter has the opportunity to obtain export financing under Sinosure’s protection, ensuring they can offer trade credits to their clients despite their own financial limitations.
