The Three-Prong Approach

Service Pillars

Distressed Cargo Logistics

Unlocking value in stranded or logistically constrained seaborne assets. Aethelgard deploys its principal balance sheet to absorb market inefficiencies — acquiring off-spec, delayed, or title-disputed cargoes where larger institutions face structural constraints.

Distressed AssetsTitle DisputesRisk Mitigation

Corridor Optimization

Facilitating trade through emerging non-traditional supply routes between Baltic, Black Sea, and Asian hubs. We identify and exploit price dislocation across geographic corridors, structuring logistics solutions that transform route inefficiencies into margin.

Regulatory Framework

Compliance Architecture

Our Dynamic Compliance function is a live operating layer — not a static checklist. Real-time screening across OFAC General License 134, MARPOL, and evolving sanctions regimes underpins every principal commitment, enabling zero-friction title transfers at market speed.

01GL 134

US Treasury General License 134

Authorizing global transactions for Russian-origin cargoes loaded prior to March 12, 2026, under the safe harbor provisions of US Treasury OFAC GL 134. We maintain in-house legal counsel on retainer for real-time sanctions screening and title chain review prior to commitment.

02MARPOL

MARPOL Standards

Our STS and vessel selection protocols require compliance with the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) Annexes I and II. Vessel vetting includes COF review, P&I club certificates, and flag-state endorsement of applicable documentation.

3-Tier KYC Vetting

Counterparty onboarding follows a structured three-tier Know Your Customer protocol: Tier 1 identity and beneficial ownership verification; Tier 2 reputational and media screening; Tier 3 end-use declaration and cargo origin attestation. No transaction proceeds without full tier clearance.

Beneficial OwnershipMedia ScreeningEnd-Use Declaration

Every counterparty, cargo, and vessel is screened before commitment.

Aethelgard retains independent legal counsel experienced in OFAC, EU, and OFSI sanctions regimes to support real-time transaction clearance.
