Evolution Credit Partners Exceeds $1B in Credit Protection Amid Rising Demand for Alternatives

Evolution Credit Partners Management, LLC has announced a significant milestone, having delivered more than $1 billion in Trade Credit Protection (TCP) since its inception in late 2020. This achievement highlights the growing need for alternative credit solutions in a market where traditional trade credit insurance and factoring channels fall short for many companies. Evolution's TCP program is specifically designed to cater to suppliers, banks, and factors dealing with below-investment-grade buyers, offering a flexible and responsive approach to credit protection.

The demand for such innovative solutions has surged as businesses navigate the complexities of shifting supply chains, increasing tariffs, and a general tightening of risk appetite among traditional insurers. Evolution's bespoke TCP offering has proven to be an effective tool for mitigating counterparty risk and ensuring the continuity of working capital, especially in volatile market conditions.

Rene Canezin, Co-Founder of Evolution, emphasized the platform's role in addressing the needs of underserved market participants, with the $1 billion milestone serving as a testament to the trust and demand from clients. A notable example of Evolution's impact is its collaboration with Casas Bahia, a leading retail chain in Brazil, where a customized TCP solution was implemented to secure the company's supply chain amidst limited traditional credit insurance options.

Evolution's TCP program distinguishes itself from conventional products by offering comprehensive protection features, including coverage against bankruptcy and non-payment events, protection for preference and work in progress, customizable monthly protection amounts, and flexibility to adapt to changing trade exposure timelines. This innovative approach combines leveraged finance and trade finance expertise to provide clients with solutions that not only manage risk but also enhance liquidity and support growth in uncertain environments.
