Frequently asked — Finote Selam

What is All Frontier Global Nexus?
All Frontier Global Nexus (AJG) is a commission-only trade brokerage representing both buyer and seller principals simultaneously. We do not charge retainers, consulting fees, or upfront costs. Our fee is a commission paid only when a trade transaction is completed. We operate across 50 verticals, 185 countries, 273 FTAs, and 36 bilateral corridors.
What does commission-only mean?
Commission-only means AJG earns no fee unless a trade transaction is successfully concluded. There are no retainers, no monthly fees, no upfront payments. When a mandated trade deal closes, both the buyer principal and the seller principal each pay a negotiated commission to AJG. If the deal does not close, AJG earns nothing.
What does 'both principals' mean?
AJG represents both the exporter (seller principal) and the importer (buyer principal) simultaneously. Unlike traditional brokers who represent only one side, AJG' commission-only model means our interest is aligned with completing the transaction — which benefits both parties. Full disclosure is maintained with both principals at all times.
Who are the AJG principals?
AJG has two founding principals: Vinod Kumar Jain (India Principal) based in Panchkula, Haryana — with 50+ years of experience in pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and import-export; and Amit Jain (EU Principal) based in Porto, Portugal — a digital generalist holding a D2 Entrepreneur Visa and a PGDip in Global Marketing. Together they cover India-EU, India-UAE, and global trade corridors.
Where is AJG based?
