Reverse Factoring also known as Supply Chain Finance, is a financial solution where a company (as buyer) collaborates with the Bank to ensure that their suppliers receive early payments.
How does it work?
- The buyer signs an agreement with OTP Bank S.A
- Invoices accepted for payment are uploaded online to the e-Factoring platform
- The supplier receives the money immediately, and the buyer retains the negotiated payment terms
The result?
The buyer can direct working capital to other strategic projects, and the supplier has immediate access to liquidity, at advantageous costs and without the risk of non-payment.
Why is this a win-win solution?
- For the buyer - ability to extend payment terms without affecting the relationship with suppliers and to maintain supply chain stability.
- For the supplier - quick access to liquidity and payment security.
Advantages for the Supplier:
- Receives payment immediately after the invoice is approved by the buyer.
- No collateral and no financial analysis.
- Financed on the Debtor's credit risk.
- Costs adapted to the Debtor's rating.
- No increase in credit exposure.
Advantages for the Buyer:
- Extended payment terms, without financial pressure on suppliers.
- Optimized working capital, available for investment and development.
- Strengthening of commercial relationships.
- Stability and security of supply chain by providing a quick source of liquidity to partners.
- Contribution to ESG objectives – supporting suppliers and sustainable financing.
