Factoring for buyers searching for deferred payment dates

A commercial transaction is where conflicting interests of the parties often meet as regards payment dates. The Supplier expects the Buyer will pay immediately after delivery, whilst the Buyer wants to defer the payment date and ask the Supplier for the longest trade credit possible. And the financial tool which can support trade credit management on the Buyer’s side is Reverse Factoring.
