Problem
Real orders for clean energy equipment in emerging markets stall because banks cannot justify originating and checking smaller, thinner-file transactions one by one, and suppliers fear unpaid receivables if they extend credit. This forces cash-only terms that stop commercially sound sales despite reliable power demand, ready equipment, and signed contractor orders.
Solution
NuruFi provides an asset-light risk verification engine that makes each equipment order assessable at the transaction level. The company verifies the order, parties, and evidence on the ground, underwrites the corporate off-taker's ability to pay, structures protected terms including deposit, tenor, and milestones, and monitors the deal through final repayment. This creates one documented credit record that follows the transaction from purchase order to last payment, enabling distributors and banks to make safer credit decisions without building an internal credit desk. NuruFi's team is present in the markets it serves, checking sites and parties in person rather than relying on paperwork alone.
