VProfecto Limited is a private maritime company specialising in global maritime trading, commercial shipping operations and data-driven market solutions. Operating across the main international maritime corridors, we provide end-to-end commercial operations, ship finance and advisory services to vessel owners, global charterers and commodity traders.

Our team brings more than 35 years of shipping and maritime experience to every mandate. That depth shows in how we work. We are calm in volatile markets, sharp on detail, and quick to act when a good opportunity opens. We use agile, strategic techniques to secure the best outcomes for clients in the dry bulk and tanker sectors, and we hold ourselves to a fiduciary standard of care.

Ship & yacht finance

Finance arranged on your terms

Arranging finance for a vessel is a negotiation, not a form to fill in. We sit on your side of the table, take your project to the lenders best suited to it, and make them compete for your business.

  • A global lender network of commercial banks, leasing houses, private credit funds and family offices
  • Several financiers run in parallel, with every term sheet compared line by line
  • We act only for you and never take a lender-side fee that could bias our advice
  • Nothing paid upfront. Our success fee is due only when your financing closes

VProfecto Limited arranges introductions to third-party financiers. Final terms are subject to each financier's own credit approval.

What sets us apart

Seasoned judgment. Independent advice. Decisive execution.

Anyone can list vessels and lenders. What clients value is the judgment of people who have worked through more than three decades of shipping cycles, and the character to use it in their interest.

01

Seasoned

Over 35 years of maritime depth

Our team has worked through the booms, the downturns and everything between. That lived experience sharpens every valuation, negotiation and risk call we make for you.

02

Independent

We act only for you

Our advice is unbiased and unhurried. We are not tied to a single bank, yard or owner, and we never take a lender-side fee that could cloud our judgment.

03

Discreet

Confidential by instinct

Vessel, pricing and counterparty details are handled with care and shared only with the parties who genuinely need them to move your deal forward.

04

Agile

Fast, focused and strategic

A lean, senior team means quick answers and clear decisions. We move at the speed of the market without losing sight of the long-term outcome.

05

Principled

A fiduciary standard of care

We put the client's interest at the centre of every deal and hold ourselves to the highest standards of excellence, honesty and accountability.

06

Rooted and global

Local insight, worldwide reach

Hubs in Hong Kong, Dubai and India give us real awareness of local culture and risk, paired with a global outlook that resolves issues before they grow.
