mettre l'argent sur la table/fournir rubis sur ongle


Explanation:
to frontload = +/- payer par anticipation plutôt que de donner l'argent après coup, dans le genre" to pay up front"

Les traductions données ne sont pas "bonnes" car il doit y avoir un terme officiel que je ne connais pas (encore)

PAYER EN AVAL (et non pas en amont) - est-ce que le terme exsite. Que sais-je - mais c\'est une piste

il pourrait s'agir d'une contraction de front-end loading ?


Explanation:
le front-end loading est un système de prélèvement des frais sur les premiers versements (Harrap's finance). Si c'est le cas, la traduction pourrait être : "qui prélèverait les frais liés aux déboursements de l'aide"
