BARRIERS TO ENTRY IN THE RUSSIAN MARKET • Not many regulations to protect either party • Corruption is wide-spread and deeply rooted • Serious obstacle for private sector growth • In 2002, Russian Corporations allocated an estimate of $60 billion towards bribes Few alternative solutions to Cash Flow Problems • Industry financing • Banks or Corporations APAAC
Factoring Opportunity Fulfilling a need Deal economics Russia Valuation
FACTORING SERVICES TO THE TRANSPORTATION INDUSTRY • Truckers’ clients are faced with cash flow problems – prefer to delay payments • Few trucking companies agree to accept A/R • Drivers are instructed to stay until payment is received • Such collection practice is detrimental to the business • A/R that are on the books = uncollectible debt • Shadow accounting APAAC
OPPORTUNITY • Capitalize on the unrealized existing need for factoring services • No current market for factoring services, because nobody targets the transportation industry • By offering the factoring services we will create the market APAAC
Merchandise $30K - $100K THE STRATEGY Provide factoring services to the transportation companies and use the established connections to gain access to the trade transactions that the transportation companies service Seller Buyer Access to the buyers and sellers will open an opportunity to offer factoring and purchase order financing services for large trade transactions APAAC
