Case Study: How to monetize Drafts for project funding

The sovereign bank was looking to fund a large real estate project and needed to transfer a significant amount of funds to the recipient. They wanted to ensure that the payment method was secure and reliable, so they decided to use a bank draft. To reduce the risk and ensure performance, the bank also contacted Bluhe Shire, a private trust, to help them structure the banking.


The first step in the process was to contact the recipient of the funds to confirm their preference for payment by bank draft and to obtain their bank account information. The bank provided the recipient's name, bank account number, and the bank's routing number to the bank issuing the bank draft.


Next, the bank went to their own bank and requested a bank draft for the specified amount. The bank provided the recipient's bank account information and the amount of money they wanted to transfer. The bank issuing the draft charged a fee for the service, which the sovereign bank paid.


After paying the fee, the bank draft was sent to the recipient. The sovereign bank had the option to mail the bank draft to the recipient's address, deliver it in person, or have the bank wire the funds directly to the recipient's bank account. In this case, they chose to have the funds wired directly to the recipient's bank account.


Finally, the sovereign bank confirmed that the recipient had received the bank draft and that the funds had been transferred to their account. This step was important to ensure that the real estate project was properly funded.


Overall, the use of a bank draft and the involvement of Bluhe Shire, a private trust, helped the sovereign bank to reduce risk and ensure performance in the transfer of funds for the real estate project. The bank draft provided a secure and reliable method of payment, while Bluhe Shire's expertise helped to structure the banking in a way that reduced risk and ensured performance.


Overall Performance

The cost of the project funding was $2,500,000,000. To secure the payment, the sovereign bank decided to use a bank draft, which had a fee of 15% of the total amount, so the bank fees cost was $375,000,000 ($2,500,000,000 x 15%). In addition to the bank fees, there were also compliance costs of 1.5%, which amounted to $37,500,000 ($2,500,000,000 x 1.5%).


A portion of the funding, $1,000,000,000, was invested in trade and generated a profit of 233% over the course of one year. The profit came to $2,330,000,000 ($1,000,000,000 x 233%).


In order to commission the trade, the sovereign bank incurred a cost of 1.25% in total commissionable fees, which amounted to $12,825,000 ($1,000,000,000 x 1.25%).



When adding up all the costs, the total costs came to $426,325,000 ($375,000,000 + $37,500,000 + $12,825,000). The net profit after deducting all costs was $1,903,675,000 ($2,330,000,000 - $426,325,000).
