Frequently asked — San Carlos

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.
What verticals does AJG cover?
AJG covers 50 trade verticals including pharmaceuticals, engineering goods, textiles, chemicals, agro-food, gems & jewellery, IT & recruitment, technology, automotive components, shipping & logistics, iron & steel, real estate, medical devices, biotech, agritech, green energy, water & environment, digital health, oil & gas, financial services, food processing, luxury goods, creative media, education & training, legal & professional services, ESG consulting, construction materials, plastics & rubber, ceramics, furniture, sports & recreation, beauty & wellness, packaging, printing, scientific instruments, marine & offshore, aviation, cold chain logistics, renewables equipment, smart cities, agro-chemicals, technical textiles, medical tourism, franchise & retail, Amazon e-commerce, D2C branding, trade finance services, HR & executive search, and carbon credits.
How does AJG verify my counterparty?
AJG conducts standard due diligence including: business registration verification, sanctions screening (OFAC, EU, UN lists), Dun & Bradstreet credit check, bank reference check, and ECGC/Coface country and buyer risk assessment. For high-value mandates, AJG requires audited financial statements from the counterparty.
What happens if a deal does not close?
If a mandate does not result in a completed trade transaction, AJG earns no commission. There is no cancellation fee or break-up cost. AJG reserves the right to withdraw from a mandate if it determines the mandate is not commercially viable, the principals are not acting in good faith, or regulatory barriers make completion impossible.
How does AJG handle confidentiality?
All mandate submissions are treated as confidential. AJG does not disclose principal identities to third parties without written consent. NDAs are executed with principals on request. AJG' online systems are secured and mandate data is not shared with any third party.
