Luminus Partners Sàrl is a Geneva-based advisory firm specialising in structured finance, commodity trade finance, and asset-backed lending for mid-to-large corporates and financial institutions.
Our expertise →Luminus Partners Sàrl was established in Geneva in 2026 to provide independent, senior-level advisory to commodity trading groups, financial sponsors, and lenders navigating complex cross-border transactions.
We operate where conventional banking advisory falls short — at the intersection of physical commodity flows, structured credit, and bespoke financing architecture. Our mandates typically involve bilateral or club lending structures, asset-backed facilities, and long-dated capital solutions requiring deep sector expertise and relationships across the financing and trading community.
Geneva provides an unrivalled vantage point: proximity to the world's leading commodity trading houses, a mature structured finance market, and a neutral, internationally trusted legal environment.
Advisory on pre-export, borrowing base, and asset-backed facilities for commodity trading groups and producers. Structuring, lender identification, and term negotiation.
