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

2 Standard Bank your trade partner in, for and across Africa Open Account Trade and Supply Chain Financing If all sales were settled on a cash basis, receivables management would be easy. But the reality is that a significant part of your sales could be made on credit terms. As such, you inevitably have to deal with the impact of receivables on profitability, liquidity and productivity. With over 150 years experience, Standard Bank understands the need of businesses to effectively manage receivables due to their impact on: Profitability in optimising pricing, credit terms and profitable sales; de-risking your balance sheet and improving credit monitoring; and reducing cash collection costs. Liquidity in accelerating cash flow and providing certainty around working capital. 3

3 Productivity in improving billing, collections and reconciliations; and improving balance sheet ratios, credit rating and share price. Standard Bank can provide you with working solutions to drive efficiency in your working capital management. Export Invoice Financing or Invoice Discounting Standard Bank provides short-term finance against copies of commercial invoices drawn to settle open account trade. This accelerates cash flows and improves your liquidity. This solution can be structured with or without recourse to you. When a without recourse structure is provided, the bank will make limits on your buyer. 2. Drawdown request, commercial invoice and evidence of shipment Seller 1.

Receivables Discounting This involves the purchase of invoices or bills raised by you on approved buyers. In consideration of this purchase, Standard Bank will fund, prepay and/or discount the qualifying invoices or bills. We rely on the quality of the book to support this financing structure. As with discounting, this solution improves liquidity through accelerated cash flows, and allows for better matching to working capital requirements due to timing flexibility. It also enhances collection support by leveraging on Standard Bank s extensive network and supports sales ledger administration with timely and comprehensive management information system reports. Balance sheet efficiency is enhanced and risk is mitigated against default or insolvency of the buyer and associated country risk. Buyer s bank 3.
