Receivable Financing module is vendor/seller centric.  It provides our clients discount financing against their receivables to unlock working capital tied up in the cash conversion cycle of trade payment cycles and terms.  Receivable Financing is a type of asset lending which allows sellers to receive income from the sale of a product or service before the terms of a deal are totally satisfied. This can be accomplished by banks buying discounted invoices from the seller or by servicing the seller with receivable financing. Either way, banks receive income from this transaction. For this income, the bank assumes the responsibility to service and collect on the terms of an invoice. Upon payment by the buyer, the financial institution will close out the loans.  Click here to find out how our Receivables Financing System can Decrease DSO.

Using Receivables to Create Value

As the intermediaries between suppliers and buyers, Financial Service Firms (FSFs) play a vital role in facilitating the global financial supply chain. From upstream services like advisory services and corporate financing to downstream services like payment processing, FSFs touch all facets of global trade.

In an ideal world, this process would go smoothly, enabling all participants to maximize working capital, drive revenue, and make actuale financial forecasts. However, the reality is different. The buyer's ability to drive revenue is compromised when the supplier delays product shipments or defects to other competitors. FSFs lose precious working capital and staff productivity to bad loans and payment delays. And suppliers must scramble for costly financing when buyers postpone or contest payment. This can result in a major disconnect between the physical and financial supply chains, impairing each participant's ability to execute and grow his business.

Premium's Receivables Financing Solution ends that disconnect, streamlining the financial supply chain and providing value for all participants. Using the latest Java/J2EE/XML technology and rules-based engines, Premium provides an end-to-end receivables financing solution that reduces errors, enables collaboration, and automates key banking processes.
