NETWORK · FINANCIER PORTAL
Your financing partner — bank, factor, alt lender, SCF fund — underwrites on what you send in a deck. The deck is a snapshot. Their decision is conservative because everything they can't verify becomes spread. You pay that gap, every quarter, on every line.
The Financier Portal gives them a portfolio workspace across all the operators they fund — marketplace deal flow, live shipment data, document chain, counterparty payment history, portfolio concentration. They see the cargo, not the slide. Faster decisions, tighter spreads, fewer back-and-forth weeks. Free for operators. Free for operator-invited financiers. Self-signup financiers pay the same regular subscription as operators, scaled by order volume.

Money flow
Bilateral · EDMA never holds the cash · no custody
Two-step disclosure. Listings show industry, geography, value range & performance signals only. Operator/supplier identity reveals after financier signals interest & operator approves.
1PORTFOLIO-NATIVE
Financiers manage portfolios across many operators — not single relationships. Cross-operator exposure, concentration alerts, repayment forecast are first-class. The other portals see one operator; this one sees nine.
2TWO-STEP DISCLOSURE
The active deal in the inbox shows industry, geography, value range & performance signals — no names. Identity reveals only after financier signals interest and operator approves. Underwriting begins on that disclosure.
3BILATERAL MONEY FLOW · NO CUSTODY
Money moves bilaterally outside EDMA — financier pays supplier direct, client pays financier direct. The platform coordinates the operational record; cash moves bank-to-bank. EDMA never holds the money. No custody, no per-deal accrual, no monthly bill. The platform earns from subscriptions only.

THREE FINANCIER-SIDE SURFACES · BEYOND THE PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio dashboard above is one of six tabs in the financier portal. Below: the three surfaces that move a deal from candidate to booked — the marketplace browse view, the anonymous listing detail, and the offer composer. Same operational record, three different permission boundaries.
SURFACE 01 · MARKETPLACE — BROWSE
The Marketplace tab. Every operator-published listing your firm hasn't already passed on, ranked by the platform's fit score against your concentration policy, ticket band, and sector preferences. Operator identity is hidden until you signal interest and they approve.

SURFACE 02 · LISTING DETAIL — PRE-DISCLOSURE
Clicking into a listing before the operator approves disclosure. Industry, route, performance signals, and a fit-score breakdown are visible. Operator name, end-buyer name, supplier name, and factory location are blurred until both sides agree.

Browse · underwrite · submit — three surfaces, one workspace. The Portfolio dashboard above sits on top of this same data. When you submit an offer here, it becomes a row on your Portfolio when the operator accepts. Same record, different views, enforced at listing.status and offer.state.
FROM THE OPERATOR'S DESK
Your financing partner — bank, factor, alt lender, SCF fund — wants to underwrite on the data behind the deck. They don't get it. They underwrite the deck, price the spread to cover everything they can't verify, and you pay for the gap. Every quarter, at every renewal, for every new line.
PROBLEM 01
You send the operational summary. They want shipment history. You export from EDMA. They want document chain. You export again. They want counterparty payment record. You export again. Three days later, the deal has moved.
PROBLEM 02
Live operational data → better risk pricing. Stale PDF data → risk premiums you pay for. Without visibility into QC trends, on-time history, supplier reliability, your financier defaults to the worst-case. You give up 50–80 bps to financiers who never saw the live cargo.
PROBLEM 03
Different banks, different factors, different SCF funds. Each asks for different data in a different format. Each reconciles repayments separately. Each runs its own renewal cycle. Your finance team spends a day a week on partner ops that should be one query.
WHAT FINANCIERS DO IN THE PORTAL
Built for the financier's portfolio team — credit officers, underwriters, treasury operations — across every operator they fund. Each workflow runs on the same operational record that powers the operator's main portal. Identity is protected by the two-step disclosure protocol until both sides agree to reveal.
STREAM A · BROWSE
Anonymous summary listings show industry, geography, value range, tenor, performance signals (operator on-time, QC pass rate, payment consistency). Filter by sector, country, tenor band, signal threshold. Watchlist + saved searches. Request disclosure; operator approves; full identity + operational data revealed.
STREAM B · UNDERWRITE
4-step offer form with live deal economics rail: fee % of receivable face → gross fee → net profit → APR equivalent. Compete with other financiers; operator picks. Once accepted, agreement enters pending_legal; both sides sign; disbursement gate opens.
STREAM C · MONITOR
Live monitoring on every active deal — buyer credit · assignment status · insurance binder · document completeness · production & shipment · client claims. Real-time updates from operator + supplier + logistics flow into the same view. Action items surface only when something requires the financier's attention.
STREAM C · SETTLE
At payback, the auto-computed Settlement Waterfall orchestrates 4 steps: buyer pays receivable → financier recovers disbursement → financier keeps fee → operator residual remits to operator at T+2. Vs-projected variance tracked at close. No platform fee — EDMA never touches the money. Externally-sourced deals follow the same waterfall.
STREAM D · EXTERNAL
4-step wizard captures deals the financier brought from off-platform — bank lines, factor relationships, SCF programs — tracked first-class with full ops tooling. No marketplace fee. Optionally promote the operator to the marketplace to bring them onto the broader network; retain preferred-financier status on their next 3 listings.
PER-DEAL EXECUTION · MONITORING + SETTLEMENT
Every active financing in the ACME portfolio runs on the same execution surface. On the left, six signals the platform monitors continuously against your receivable. On the right, the waterfall that computes — and remits — settlement when the buyer pays. Both are live; both update with the operator's record; neither lives in a spreadsheet.

PRICING · TWO PATHS, ONE PLATFORM
No separate financier pricing. The Financier Portal is one of EDMA's network portals — same operating record, same subscription tiers as operators. Path A is for the financiers your operators already work with: an operator brings them in, they fund those deals, free always. Path B is for financiers signing up independently to run their own portfolio — they use the regular operator subscription tiers, scaled by the number of deals they manage on the platform.
PATH A · OPERATOR-INVITED
An operator invites you in to fund their deals. You see their workspace, you fund what they list. No subscription, no fee, no tier required. Same operational record as the operator's team.
PATH B · SELF-SIGNUP
You sign up independently to manage your own portfolio — marketplace deal flow + externally-sourced deals from bank lines, factors, SCF programs. Pricing scales by the number of orders you manage, same as operators.
IDENTITY PROTECTION
Operators are not required to broadcast their financing needs to the entire universe of financiers. The default is anonymous. Identity discloses only when both sides have signalled interest — financier first, operator confirms. This is the protocol, not a setting buried three menus deep.
Operators who prefer a public-by-default listing — to attract bids quickly on a known-good track record — can choose to publicly disclose at listing time. The default, every time, is anonymous.
Step 1 — Anonymous listingOperator posts to marketplace · summary only.
Industry, geography, value range, tenor, performance signals — on-time history, QC pass rate, payment consistency. No operator name. No supplier name. No client name. Financiers see the cargo profile and the credit-relevant signals; nothing that identifies the trade.
Financier signals interest →
Step 2 — Disclosure on interestOperator reviews financier · approves disclosure.
Financier signals interest with one click. Operator reviews the financier's profile — regulatory status, financing capacity, references, prior performance. Operator approves disclosure. Full identities reveal to both sides. Underwriting begins on the real operational record.
EXTERNALLY-SOURCED · v1 FIRST-CLASS
Financiers don't only get deals from EDMA's marketplace. Most have existing portfolios — bank lines, factor relationships, SCF funds — already in motion before they ever heard of us. The Financier Portal tracks these externally-sourced deals as first-class records, with full operational tooling.
Orders, documents, tasks, repayment tracking — same surface as marketplace deals. No platform fee on externally-sourced, because EDMA didn't source the match. The financier pays subscription for the tooling, and runs their whole book in one place instead of three spreadsheets and a Slack channel.

OPTIONAL · TWO-SIDED
Worked with the same operator off-platform for years? Promote them to the marketplace and they gain access to ~140 verified financiers for their future deals, while you retain preferred-financier status on their next 3 listings — a 24h first-look window before competitors can offer. Operator must accept; current deal stays unchanged either way.
HOW THE PORTAL WORKS WITH THE AI STACK
The same AI stack that powers the operator product — predictive forecasts, accounting automation, the Atlas conversational layer — works inside the Financier Portal, scoped to the financier's own portfolio. No model is trained across financiers; every query is filtered to the requesting account before it leaves the service.
▲PREDICTIVE AI · UNDERWRITING
QC trends, payment patterns, supplier reliability, port-congestion deltas — fed into a default-probability model and a cargo-arrival forecast. Real signals from the operator's live record, not a self-reported deck.
// AGR-2026-019 · Medical gloves importer · 60d Cargo arrival Jul 18 · σ 1.4d QC pass · 90d 98.7% (vs sector 94.1%) On-time pay 96.4% over 24mo Default p · 60d 0.41% (low)
≡ACCOUNTING AI · RECONCILIATION
Every repayment — bank wire, ACH, escrow release — is matched against the financed deal it relates to. The accrual ledger runs itself; treasury reviews exceptions, not every row.

COMPARE
PrimeRevenue and Taulia win on supplier early-pay programs but live downstream of an ERP, not the cargo. Bank credit-memo systems win on regulatory rigor, lose on operator-context. Spreadsheet + email is what most of the market still actually runs on. EDMA's Financier Portal isn't trying to beat any of them on their own ground — it's a portfolio workspace tied to live operational data, with two-step disclosure and externally-sourced as first-class.

PrimeRevenue and Taulia are buyer-led SCF networks; they live downstream of a corporate ERP, not a live cargo record. Bank credit-memo systems have the rigor but none of the operator-context. Spreadsheet + email is the actual incumbent for most of the alt-lender market. The Financier Portal does something none of these does: it treats the operator's live operational record as the underwriting surface, gives the financier a portfolio workspace across every operator they fund, and charges nothing for the externally-sourced deals it didn't originate.
FAQ
Honest answers to the questions that come up on every demo call. The shortest one: EDMA never holds money — financiers pay suppliers direct, clients pay financiers direct, and EDMA earns from subscriptions only. That single fact reframes most of the rest.
