While no two programs are the same, there is certainly a right way and a wrong way to approach supply chain finance. Over the past 16 years, we’ve gained insight into best practices that help our 30,000+ clients more quickly see impressive results and continual growth.

This starts with a multi-funder approach, which ensures your program is well funded even if a bank exits a market or pulls back funding, and extends working capital analysis, goal-setting, supplier communications and internal stakeholder alignment.
If you’re wondering how to get the most cash flow gain out of your supply chain finance program – or what missteps you should avoid – check out the infographic below.
