Monetize Your IEEPA Tariff Refund Claims: Immediate Liquidity Solutions

If your company paid tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and does not want to wait for clarity on the refund process, Texas Capital’s Credit Sales & Trading team is actively engaged with market participants that stand ready to purchase IEEPA-related refund claims, subject to validation, diligence and documentation.

Key attributes of a saleable IEEPA claim

While each situation is evaluated individually, marketable claims typically have:

• Clear evidence of payment a specific amount
• Documented acknowledgment or evidence of receipt in satisfaction of IEEPA-based obligations
• No material contingencies, disputes, or offset risk

Rationale for the sale of an IEEPA claim

Sales of refund claims, particularly in cases like IEEPA where a taxpayer’s entitlement and process to receive a payment remains unclear, occur at a discount to the total amount of potential refund. Companies may decide to transact to:

• Improve liquidity and equity
• De-risk uncertainty relating to eligibility and timing of refunds
• Reduce administrative burden in pursuit of the refund process

Texas Capital’s Credit Sales & Trading professionals can provide an initial assessment and discuss potential transaction terms in the market for IEEPA refund claims.

If your firm holds — or is evaluating — an IEEPA refund, we would welcome a confidential conversation. Reach out to the Head of Credit Sales and Trading at [email protected] or to your regular Texas Capital contact.
