Maus Coex Capital Expands Global Financing Access Through SBLC Leasing and Monetization Programs
VANCOUVER, B.C. – As global businesses face increasing challenges accessing traditional credit facilities, Maus Coex Capital is helping clients unlock liquidity through a powerful financial tool: the Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC).
In a newly launched initiative, Maus Coex Capital offers end-to-end SBLC leasing and monetization services, enabling businesses to access critical capital through structured, compliant, and internationally recognized instruments.
'In today's economic environment, conventional financing isn't always feasible,' said Rohan Ellis, Senior Partner at Maus Coex Capital. 'Leased SBLCS allow companies to secure capital and mitigate lender risk without sacrificing equity or operations.'
What is an SBLC and How Does It Work?
A Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC) is a bank-issued financial instrument that guarantees payment to a beneficiary if the applicant (client) fails to meet contractual obligations. Governed by the ICC Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees (URDG 758), SBLCS are recognized globally and commonly used in cross-border trade and project finance.
Unlike direct loans, SBLCs do not transfer funds upfront but serve as a guarantee of payment. Thus, the holder can obtain credit from financial institutions by presenting the SBLC as collateral.
Leasing an SBLC: A Strategic Alternative to Traditional Credit
Rather than issuing SBLCS directly from their bank lines, many companies opt to lease SBLCS from institutional providers. This allows them to present a high-value instrument as collateral, without tying up their cash.
The SBLC lease process includes: Initial Consultation – Maus Coex assesses business objectives, credit needs, and feasibility. Provider Selection – Maus Coex matches clients with Tier 1 SBLC providers with proven reputations. Negotiating the Collateral Transfer Agreement (CTA): This agreement outlines the face value, lease period, fees, and terms. SWIFT Delivery of the SBLC – The provider's bank transmits the SBLC securely to the client's bank. Monetization – The client's bank or third-party lender offers a loan or line of credit based on the SBLC.
'The SBLC leasing process offers businesses capital access while maintaining liquidity and control,' Ellis noted.

Case Study 1: Infrastructure Developer Leases SBLC to Fund Expansion
Client: EuroRail Logistics (Austria)
Challenge: EuroRail required €25 million in capital to upgrade freight infrastructure but lacked traditional collateral.
Solution: Maus Coex arranged to lease an SBLC from a Swiss provider, which a private lender in Luxembourg then monetized.
Outcome: EuroRail secured the loan within 21 business days and avoided equity dilution.
'The SBLC from Maus Coex allowed us to unlock capital we otherwise couldn't access,' said EuroRail CFO Anneliese Mayer. 'It kept our expansion plans on schedule.'
Monetizing the SBLC: Turning Guarantees into Working Capital
Once delivered, the SBLC can be monetized, meaning it is used as collateral for a loan, typically at 70–90% of its face value.
Key Benefits of SBLC Monetization: Fast access to capital (typically 10–21 days)
(typically 10–21 days) No need for traditional credit checks
Funds can be used for trade, real estate, infrastructure, or M&A
If a bank declines to monetize an SBLC, Maus Coex offers access to third-party lenders, particularly in Switzerland, the UAE, and Singapore, specializing in collateral-backed credit.
Case Study 2: Tech Startup Secures $5M in Growth Capital via SBLC
Client: DataVault Systems (California)
Challenge: The company required growth funding but had no tangible assets for bank loans.
Solution: Maus Coex facilitated a $6M SBLC lease. DataVault monetized 85% of its face value within three weeks via a London-based private lender.
Outcome: The startup launched its following product line without selling equity.
'We didn't have to dilute ownership or wait on VCS,' said CEO Ryan Cortez. 'Maus Coex delivered a strategic financing solution.'

Most Americans support corporate LGBTQ+ Pride efforts despite pull-back by major brands: report
As some companies scale back their public LGBTQ+ engagement under political pressure, a new GLAAD-Ipsos survey released Thursday paints a far more supportive picture of American consumer sentiment. According to the data, 70 percent of Americans say that knowing a company offers LGBTQ+ Pride merchandise either positively affects or does not impact their purchasing decisions. An even greater share—71 percent—believe companies should be free to support Pride Month if they choose. Keep up with the latest in + news and politics. 'The big headline is that Americans think it's important to be inclusive, to include LGBTQ people, and to include all people,' GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis told The Advocate in an interview. 'When they see companies do that, they think they run a good company. They take care of their employees, and they take care of their consumers.' According to Ellis, the findings challenge the portrayal that supporting Pride has become too risky for business. In recent months, several high-profile brands—including Target and Bud Light—have scaled back LGBTQ+ visibility in the face of organized right-wing backlash. PR Daily and Gravity Research report that 39 percent of Fortune 500 and Global 1000 executives say they plan to decrease Pride participation this year. Notably, none said they plan to increase it. Nearly 20 percent said they still hadn't decided, even with Pride just weeks away. Related: Ditching DEI hurt Target's sales in first quarter In New York, the effect is already visible. This week, the New York Times reports that about 25 percent of corporate donors to New York City Pride have either canceled or scaled back their support, citing economic concerns and fear of retaliation from the Trump administration. That includes past top sponsors such as Mastercard, Target, Nissan, and Garnier. Now donating as a 'silent partner,' Target has opted out of public recognition. On its earnings call this week, Target reported a 3.7 percent drop in same-store sales and pointed to backlash over its retreat from diversity initiatives as one of the factors dragging down performance. Despite those corporate anxieties, GLAAD's findings show that the public hasn't turned away. Among Black respondents, 64 percent said they are comfortable with brands publicly supporting LGBTQ+ organizations. That number was 55 percent among Hispanic respondents and 60 percent among Americans ages 18 to 34. GLAAD also found that 85 percent of Americans believe CEOs are responsible for speaking out on issues that matter, and 81 percent say freedom means all people should be able to live and express themselves as they choose, so long as they're not hurting others. Tristan Marra, who leads research efforts at GLAAD, said that the organization's Accelerating Acceptance data reveals even deeper connections between personal relationships and public support. 'If someone were to tell a non-LGBTQ+ person that they were trans or nonbinary, more than 70 percent would support them,' Marra said. 'That's the power of knowing someone. And in terms of media, 78 percent of non-LGBTQ+ Americans say everyone deserves to feel represented in media, including movies and TV shows, and even gaming.' She stressed that the work ahead lies in ensuring those personal connections and representative stories reach the public, especially those in the 'movable middle.' Related: Booz Allen Hamilton drops sponsorship of WorldPride, cites Donald Trump's anti-DEI order Ellis underlined that corporate retreat is driven not by consumer sentiment but by political pressure, particularly from the Trump administration and its allies. 'There is intimidation happening by this administration,' she said. 'We're all tricking ourselves if we think that CEOs are not ultimately about their bottom line. But the smart ones understand how it's all intricately connected.' The survey's release comes as brands navigate mounting scrutiny from conservative activists and LGBTQ+ advocates. Some companies have tried to split the difference, quietly maintaining internal Pride celebrations while stepping back from public-facing campaigns. But Ellis warned that approach often backfires. 'Target is trying to play the middle,' she said. 'They're trying to play both sides, and it's like—there aren't sides to this. There's only one way here, and that's to be inclusive.' Ellis also pointed to the unique cultural and economic influence of LGBTQ+ Americans and their allies, especially among the fastest-growing consumer groups. 'Companies that bow to opponents of inclusion will miss out on key growth segments,' she said. That warning is backed by economic data cited in GLAAD's release: the purchasing power of LGBTQ+ consumers was estimated at 1.4 trillion dollars in 2022. The buying power of Black consumers is expected to reach 1.7 trillion dollars by 2030, and the Hispanic population has grown by 85 percent since 2000. The research also emphasizes the importance of representation—especially for transgender people, who remain disproportionately targeted and misunderstood. Ellis noted that most Americans still say they don't personally know someone who is transgender. 'Until we get that number inverse from 70 percent of people saying they know someone who's trans, we're going to face all the problems we're facing—whether it's on the field, in the locker room, in school, in the boardroom,' she said. She pointed to the struggle for gay and lesbian people to be accepted through shows like Will & Grace in the early 2000s. Related: WorldPride 2025 expects huge 'visibility' march & rally in D.C. amid Trump's anti-LGBTQ+ agenda GLAAD is responding by expanding its media strategy, monitoring podcasts and digital platforms for LGBTQ+ mentions, and proactively placing trans voices in those ecosystems. 'We were asleep on it all,' Ellis admitted of progressive activists in the 2024 election. 'On the influencer and podcast spaces, we just didn't see the value.' But now, she said, GLAAD is 'all over that,' guided by new research into media consumption habits and effective messaging to reach the movable middle. Despite the challenges, Ellis remains optimistic. 'Pride is a celebration. It is joy, and that is resistance right now,' she said. 'It is also always a protest. I never know when we're not protesting and pushing the world to be a better place for everyone.' She added that the fundamentals have not changed even in this polarized moment. 'We haven't lost Americans' [views] on our community. And they're the ones that always end up at the end having the last word.'

CIA Says Winning Tech War With China Top Priority, Citing ‘Existential Threat' to US
CIA Deputy Director Michael Ellis says that China represents an 'existential threat' to the United States and that the agency's top priority is outpacing the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in a high-stakes technological arms race that spans semiconductors, biotechnology, and artificial intelligence. 'China is the existential threat to American security in a way we really have never confronted before,' Ellis told Axios in an In separate remarks, including an 'The IC is very good at ... counting Soviet tanks ... to be ready for a possible conflict in Europe in the Cold War,' Ellis said. 'But ... when you ask the IC to look at issues ... where Chinese companies are in artificial intelligence research, it's not one that we've been well-positioned historically to think about.' As part of its shift in focus toward the tech race against adversaries such as China, the CIA is looking to develop more resources, including personnel, Ellis said, adding that this includes recruiting people with expertise in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 'We need more people with science and technology backgrounds, which is again a little different than the global war on terrorism mindset of the last 20 years,' he said, adding that the CIA is also increasingly looking at partnering with private-sector leaders—including recent consultations with Elon Musk—on how to cut waste, adopt artificial intelligence tools, and stay ahead of adversaries using emerging technologies like drone swarms. Related Stories 5/22/2025 5/21/2025 The deputy director's remarks echo a sharply-worded warning from former FBI Director Christopher Wray, who, before his resignation, Ellis's concerns are also reinforced by the intelligence community's latest Beijing's cyber campaign includes operations such as Volt Typhoon, a state-backed effort to infiltrate key U.S. systems and maintain covert, long-term access to vital infrastructure. A more recent campaign, known as Salt Typhoon, has targeted U.S. telecommunications networks, underscoring the regime's expanding digital reach and operational sophistication in targeting critical infrastructure in America. The report warns that in the event of a looming military conflict with Washington, especially over Taiwan, China could launch aggressive cyber strikes against U.S. military and civilian networks. These would be intended to disrupt command decisions, generate chaos among the public, and hinder the rapid deployment of American forces.

China strengthens ties in Latin America with loans, cooperative deals
ASUNCIÓN, Paraguay, May 22 (UPI) -- China is expanding its economic and political footprint in Latin America through billions of dollars in loans and cooperative deals, further challenging U.S. influence in the region. At the recent China-Community of Latin American and Caribbean States forum, President Xi Jinping announced a $9.2 billion credit line for Latin America to support infrastructure, clean energy, artificial intelligence and digital connectivity. He also unveiled a three-year plan that covers more than 100 joint projects in trade, education, health and food security. In a move to ease travel, China will waive visa requirements for citizens of Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Uruguay. China became South America's largest trading partner in 2020, surpassing the United States. Trade with the region topped $500 billion last year and is projected to reach $750 billion by 2035. Now, China is pushing beyond trade to secure long-term access to natural resources, markets and advanced technologies. "China wants stable access to key commodities like oil, copper, lithium and food," said Evan Ellis, a research professor of Latin American studies at the U.S. Army War College in Pennsylvania. "Through its state-owned companies and investment deals, it's building control over supply chains and seeking greater economic leverage." Ellis said China's strategy includes the raw material and high-tech sectors. "It's not just about buying resources. It's also about exporting advanced products and ensuring a political climate that welcomes Chinese firms," he said. Latin America's economies complement China's needs. The region has vast farmland and mineral reserves, while China's population of 1.4 billion people creates high demand for food and energy. Beijing already has invested nearly $180 billion across Latin America, according to Jorge Heine, a research professor focused on global studies at Boston University. "China's focus has shifted from mining to infrastructure -- ports, highways, power plants and telecom projects," Heine said. "In Colombia, they're supporting wind and solar projects. Brazil recently signed long-term agreements with China for science and tech cooperation." Scientific development is also part of China's global plan, according to Francisco Urdinez, director of the Center for Asian Studies at Chile's Pontifical Catholic University. "China wants to lead in fields like computer science and biomedicine," Urdinez said. "Partnerships with Latin American universities can help develop patents, especially in areas like vaccine research." In contrast to the Cold War superpower rivalry, China is not promoting a political ideology in Latin America. "This isn't the Soviet Union. China isn't exporting communism," Ellis said. "It's protecting its own growth and shielding itself from geopolitical threats, including U.S. pressure." Urdinez agreed, calling China's role mostly economic. "They're filling a gap left by the U.S. Their main tool is financial -- an enormous wallet, not ideology." Washington has pushed back. This week, the United States praised Panama for pulling out of China's Belt and Road Initiative and criticized Argentina for renewing a currency swap deal with Beijing. It also opposed international credit support for projects involving Chinese companies, including Bogotá's subway system. The China-CELAC Forum and the growing wave of Chinese-backed investments have deepened geopolitical tensions. U.S. officials see these moves as eroding their long-standing influence in Latin America, a region they have traditionally viewed as part of their strategic sphere. As Beijing builds stronger economic ties, the United States faces new pressure to reassert its role in the region -- or risk losing ground to its largest global rival.
