Local roots.
Global capital.
We put verified Nigerian invoices, agricultural equipment, and solar cash flows directly on-chain, and let global stablecoin liquidity fund them. No middlemen sitting between the harvest and the yield — just the asset, the pool, and the repayment.
A financing layer between real African businesses and global stablecoin liquidity.
Productive SMEs, agricultural cooperatives, and renewable energy operators across Nigeria hold real assets and predictable future cash flows — outstanding invoices, equipment under contract, off-take agreements — but rarely get affordable access to institutional capital. Local lending, where it exists at all, is expensive, and collateral requirements are often unrealistic for a growing business.
Meanwhile, global stablecoin liquidity is hunting for yield tied to real economic activity instead of speculation, without the steep minimums and geographic gatekeeping of traditional private credit.
Arbor connects the two directly. A verified originator's asset gets registered on-chain with a cryptographic proof of its underlying documentation, financed through a dedicated pool that global investors can enter, and repaid through a waterfall anyone can inspect. Every cycle an originator completes builds a permanent on-chain credit record — a reputation that travels with them, not with any single lender.
Four asset classes. One financing rail.
Every use case runs through the same registration, pooling, and repayment mechanics.
SME invoice receivables
A Nigerian SME with a confirmed invoice from a creditworthy buyer registers it with an approved verifier. Once the assignment is executed, a pool opens and investors fund it directly — the SME gets working capital in days instead of months, without giving up equity or pledging property they don't have.
This is the asset class Arbor launched with, and the one carrying the full end-to-end lifecycle today: registration, funding, buyer settlement, and repayment.
Agricultural equipment leasing
Cooperatives and equipment operators finance tractors, processing machinery, and irrigation equipment against the lease payments those assets generate. IoT-backed usage and payment-history tracking layer directly onto the existing pool structure, so lenders can see the equipment is actually working, not idle.
Built for the seasonal, cash-flow-heavy reality of African agriculture rather than a generic amortization schedule.
Solar mini-grid cash flows
Mini-grid operators finance panel installations and battery storage against metered off-take revenue from the households and businesses they serve. Repayment is tied to actual energy sold, so pool performance reflects real usage on the ground, not a projection.
Arrives alongside agricultural leasing as Arbor's second wave of asset classes.
Trade & working capital
Broader short-term working capital for importers, distributors, and traders with verifiable purchase orders or off-take agreements — the same asset-backed structure as invoice financing, extended to a wider set of documented commercial obligations.
Opens up as verifier coverage and pool creation widen beyond the initial invoice-financing use case.
Five steps, from invoice to yield.
The exact sequence carried out on-chain for every financed asset — in this order, every time.
SME applies & verifies
The originator submits proof of their asset; an approved verifier confirms and registers it.
Legal assignment executed
Off-chain enforceable assignment secures the receivable or asset to the pool.
Pool minted & funded
A dedicated financing pool opens and becomes available to investor capital.
Buyer settlement received
Real-world repayment arrives and is distributed through the fee waterfall.
Yield paid, track record updated
Investors receive their share; the originator's credit passport updates permanently.
Where the protocol is, and where it's going.
Deliberately narrow scope first, widening as each phase proves out.

Verified SME partners will be able to create and manage their own financing pools directly, starting Q4 2026 — moving origination from a fully verifier-gated process toward self-serve pool creation for approved originators.
Agricultural & solar asset classes
Extend origination to agricultural equipment leases and solar mini-grid cash flows, with IoT-backed telematics and payment-history tracking layered onto the existing pool structure.
Independent security audit
Full third-party audit of ArborToken, ArborCore, ArborVault, and the pool token implementation ahead of scaling deposit volume.
Secondary liquidity & broader origination
Secondary market trading for pool participation units, additional verifier partners, and expansion beyond Nigeria to further Sub-Saharan African markets.

SME partners: apply to become a validator
Validators (approved verifiers) are the trust layer between an originator's paperwork and what gets recorded on-chain. If your organization already works closely with SMEs in your market — a cooperative, a trade association, a fintech, a local lender — you're a strong fit.
- Confirm and register originator assets and their supporting documentation
- Maintain the accuracy of on-chain credit passports for the originators you cover
- Bring local market knowledge Arbor doesn't have from outside the region
