Supply Chain Finance Benefits
A Win-Win for Buyers and Suppliers
Typically, optimizing working capital is a zero-sum game where you extend payment terms to the detriment of your suppliers. Supply chain finance changes the equation by letting you provide early payment flexibility and certainty to suppliers, supporting a healthier and more robust supply chain, all while improving your liquidity.
Strengthen Supply Chain
Eliminate production gaps and reduce risk by ensuring supplier financial stability.
Optimize Working Capital
Extend payment terms to unlock working capital without negatively impacting suppliers.
Improve Relationships
Providing suppliers affordable access to cash improves their cash flow and productivity.
How Supply Chain Finance works
Offer Early Payments With Upside
Supply chain finance lets you utilize a third-party funding source to fund supplier early payments in exchange for invoice discounts. You then pay the funder at the maturation of payment terms so you can hold onto your cash longer. Programs are often introduced in tandem with a terms extension.
