Cash Blocked Funds

Mountaintop Capital Partners LLC arranges cash-blocked fund structures that keep your money in a client-named bank account while a bank places a temporary administrative hold for a defined purpose. The hold confirms availability of funds, strengthens counterparties’ confidence, and releases automatically when the underlying obligation is met.

What are Cash-Blocked Funds?

Cash-blocked funds are deposits that a bank reserves for a specific transaction. The balance is visible and verifiable, but it cannot be withdrawn or repurposed until agreed conditions are satisfied or the hold expires. Banks use this tool to support letters of credit and guarantees, project finance milestones, proof-of-funds requirements, and other time-bound obligations.

Where Clients Use Them

  • Trade and procurement: provide assurance to suppliers before production or shipment.
  • Project finance: evidence equity or contingency reserves to unlock senior debt.
  • Bank instruments: support issuance of guarantees or standby letters of credit.
  • PPP or institutional programs: demonstrate liquidity to qualified counterparties.
  • Escrow alternative: keep funds in your account with clear bank-level controls.

How it Works

  • Engage and scope:
    We review your objective, timeline, counterparties, and bank requirements, then recommend an appropriate blocking method and term.
  • KYC and documentation:
    You complete compliance checks and provide proof of funds, corporate documents, and a source-of-funds narrative. We coordinate with the bank.
  • Bank hold is placed:
    Funds remain in your account. The bank applies a hold or control block for a fixed period and issues written confirmation to named parties.
  • Transaction completes:
    On fulfillment of conditions or at maturity, the bank releases the hold and normal account access resumes. Any related instruments are closed.

Typical Parameters

  • Term: 30 to 365 days, extendable by agreement
  • Amounts: program minimums vary by bank and use case
  • Confirmation: bank letter or authenticated message to designated parties
  • Access: view-only during the hold, no transfer or encumbrance
