What is Supplier Finance?
What is Supplier Finance?
Supplier Finance (sometimes called Supply Chain Finance or Reverse Factoring) is a financial arrangement where a buyer partners with a financial institution to allow suppliers to be paid early on their invoices, often at a lower cost than traditional financing. The buyer pays the financial institution later, helping both sides manage cash flow.
How Does Supplier Finance Work?
The supplier submits an invoice to the buyer, who approves it. The financial institution then offers the supplier the choice of early payment (typically at a small fee), or waiting until the original due date to receive the full amount. The buyer then pays the financial institution at the agreed later date.
Key Benefits for Buyers and Suppliers
This arrangement helps suppliers get cash faster and cheaper, improves their working capital, and reduces financial risk. Buyers can enjoy stronger supplier relationships, streamlined payments, and often negotiate better terms or discounts, all while keeping their cash longer.
