Supplier Finance

The directors of ABL Resourcing created the UK’s first specialist Supply Chain Finance company in 2004.

Supplier Finance has now become a product-line that several major banks claim to provide.

Supplier Finance can range from the provision of a simple Purchase Finance facility to a complex structure designed to provide an extremely complex Supply Chain Finance solution.

We have now originated several Purchase Finance facilities for medium size corporates in the UK and Europe. These have ranged in size from £500k to €20mn. They provide the client with enhanced purchasing power that complements existing banking facilities. The facilities are unsecured and are generally revolving on 90 day terms.

In 2005 Westbury Homes plc was the first major UK corporate to implement a comprehensive supply chain financing programme. This structure was designed to allow all suppliers to request early settlement of their invoices without impacting on the client’s cash resources. The structure was operated on our bespoke system and the funding provided by a bank syndicate that we arranged. Westbury was financing its suppliers without increasing debt.

Supplier Finance, in one of several forms, can provide medium to large corporates with unsecured financing solutions that most banks are unable to provide on their own. We provide the systems, the debt, the insurance and the expertise to pull the structure together.
