1 Corporate and Investment Banking Open Account Trade and Supply Chain Financing Solutions for Buyers

2 Standard Bank your trade partner in, for and across Africa Open Account Trade and Supply Chain Financing All trade transactions require financing that is provided by either the buyer or the seller. As a buyer, if you pay cash on delivery, you must finance the period between obtaining the goods and then selling them. If the seller gives you longer payment terms, then they may look to a lender for accelerated payment of the receivable at an appropriate discount rate. Whatever your payment terms, a key consideration on your working capital is the timing difference between cash outflows (including supplier costs, salaries and facility costs) and cash inflows from sales activity. With extensive experience in supporting importers, Standard Bank has the expertise and solutions to help improve working capital in your business. We work with you to understand your specific business needs; for instance we consider areas such as: 3

3 Instances where payment for raw materials or goods is due upon delivery and you have not sold and collected cash to pay for them Early payment to suppliers enabling significant price discounts and stronger relationships The impact of dealing with longer supply routes coupled with infrastructural bottlenecks necessitating you to hold more stock on hand in order to minimise operational disruptions. Your business stands to benefit from Standard Bank s leading financing solutions. Invoice finance Standard Bank provides short-term finance against copies of commercial invoices drawn and evidence of shipment to settle open account trade. We make a payment on your behalf to your supplier directly against your short-term loan facility. This solution structure is ideal where you have a few periodic payments that you make to suppliers. You benefit from having more financial resources to pay suppliers upon delivery without worrying about the time it takes to manufacture and sell. Your suppliers are also not involved in raising finance and they receive payment as per contract. This solution is priced relatively cheaper than a general overdraft and is easy to use.
