We understand that trading with companies, especially overseas, can be challenging. Cashflow issues can arise while you pay your suppliers up front and wait for payment for orders from customers. In addition, we know that currency volatility can add further complication and challenges when importing goods for resale.
Trade Finance allows you to purchase goods and bridge the cashflow gap between paying your suppliers and receiving payment from your customers. You can also benefit from our integrated Foreign Exchange services if you make payments in other currencies and want to protect against future currency fluctuations.
Trade finance enables you to buy the stock you need, receive quicker payments than normal and ship your products sooner within the UK and overseas. By unlocking the funds you need to fulfil your orders you can remove the day-to-day pressure of purchasing from suppliers while improving your cashflow and growing your sales. Seasonal businesses or those that receive large one-off orders can also benefit from Trade Finance.
Getting access to the right expertise and experience will make it easier for you to develop successful relationships with overseas suppliers and deliver value for your business.
