REVERSE-FACTORING

WIN-WIN SITUATION FOR ALL PARTIES

As a wholesale customer, your interest is to bind strategic suppliers to you in the long term and to receive the best possible payment targets.

BNP Paribas Factor provides Reverse-Factoring solutions for this challenge. ("Reverse" in this context refers to the transfer of the factoring idea to the procurement side of the company or its supplier relationships.) In the case of Reverse-Factoring, a contract between the wholesale customer and BNP Paribas Factor is concluded as well as a contractual agreement with the suppliers. The suppliers will continue to provide you with their invoices and confirm their correctness. As a result, 100% of the invoice amount will be immediately transferred from the BNP Paribas Factor to the suppliers. They will pay BNP Paribas Factor after expiry of the agreed payment objective.

You can use longer payment targets, yet your suppliers have an immediate inflow of liquidity. Discount benefits can be used on both sides. Reverse-Factoring leads to a strengthening of relations with suppliers, and secures the supply of important precursors.
