Levantor Capital

What Levantor Capital does

Levantor Capital is a privately held B2B fintech founded in 2014 and headquartered in London that operates a multi-funder sales finance platform connecting sellers, buyers, and a panel of 40+ financial institutions to facilitate working capital financing across global supply chains. Its proprietary Levantor Sales Finance Platform (LSFP) automates end-to-end processing of trade financing transactions, including fully electronic bills of exchange signed via e-signature and processed through an AA-rated custodian for cross-border delivery without physical document courier. Core products comprise ACCESS CAPITAL (sellers paid sooner), DEPLOY CAPITAL (buyers extend payment terms), SUPPLIERPAY (supplier payment management), TariffPay (deferring US CBP tariff payments by up to 90 days), and a Cloud Finance module extending financing to intangible assets like software subscriptions.

The company earns transaction fees by facilitating financing between sellers and buyers through its multi-funder platform, with no minimum utilisation requirements and pricing tailored to transaction size and complexity; cost of sales finance is often offset by existing vendor prompt-payment discounts. Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales targeting corporate treasurers, CFOs, and procurement teams at global manufacturers, with event-driven presence at SIBOS, GTDC, and Cloud Expo Europe, plus distribution partnerships with major banks (Crédit Agricole CIB, US Bank, NatWest, ING, Bank of China, FIMBank) and payment players (Corpay).

As of December 2024, Levantor had facilitated over US$20 billion in cumulative working capital financing across 4,000+ transactions in 17 countries, with offices in London, Weybridge, Geneva, and the United States. The firm is founder-led (Mike Humphreys, Executive Chairman; David Frye, CEO; Tim Young, co-founder), with a senior team drawn from HSBC, Deutsche Bank, IBM Global Financing, and Macquarie Bank, and is self-funded through operating revenues rather than disclosed external equity.
