Our Story

Who We Are

Pinnacle Finance Limited ("PFL") is a UK-based firm focused on providing solutions regarding international trade, factoring and supply chain finance. We exist to solve a structural problem: the growing gap between corporate working capital demand and constrained "relationship" bank's working capital finance.

Our platform connects corporates, banks and factoring companies to a diversified pool of institutional lenders (banks, NBFIs, DFIs, MLAs, asset managers & institutional investors) via a transparent digital marketplace purpose-built for trade and supply chain finance.

We specialise in tailored solutions for exporters, banks and factoring companies operating across India, Turkey, the Middle East and Europe and our expanding footprint connects emerging markets in Africa with established economies in the UK, Europe, USA, Canada and the Middle East.

Pinnacle Finance Limited is registered in England & Wales. For regulatory and compliance information please contact info@pinnacle-trade.co.uk.
