"I would think they had some reason to cap the buy-rate, but they should let him know why so everyone is on the same page. Still, a Lender should not play God with someone's livelihood. It is the ISO's client. He brought the Merchant to the table and did all the work."

I agree with the concept and the ISO is free to take his client elsewhere. However it does seem that the funder is being transparent that for whatever reason, the commission the ISO will earn is reduced. If this were after the deal funded, that would be shady. I suspect there is a good reason, and the funder should share that with the ISO. If the ISO doesn't like the reason or the offer, take the deal elsewhere.
