Commenting on the use of supply chain finance


I have to say that the product, if managed it well, it is very profitable and has a low risk profile. Clients used to be solvents and you can control the risk closely. The product provides a capacity to dramatically manoeuvre very quickly,as new invoices can stop being accepted at any moment. The outstanding risk is for the finance that has already been advanced to the suppliers, but this will not increase. In fact, it will gradually decrease in the coming months when the invoice due dates arrive, eventually eliminating the risk.
