As an SME business owner, you understand the vital role that cash flow plays in the survival of your business. Without it, you can’t keep the lights on, pay your employees, or keep your doors open.

However, late payments, seasonal fluctuations, and unexpected expenses can quickly throw your cash flow off track, even if you’re managing your business well. So is it really possible to fix cash flow problems for good?

What if we told you that by simply changing your approach to accessing finance, you could put an end to your cash flow woes and focus on growing your business?

The good news is that working capital finance can help you address these challenges and fix your cash flow problems. Read on to find out how.


What is Working Capital Finance?

Working capital finance is a type of financing that helps SMEs access the funds they need to manage their day-to-day operations. It can come in various forms, such as trade finance and supply chain finance, and typically provides short-term funding solutions to address cash flow problems.

Trade Finance

Looking to pre-pay your shipments and improve your cash flow management? With trade finance, you can access funds up to 210 days and negotiate better terms with your suppliers. Ensure timely delivery of goods and take control of your business operations.

Invoice finance

Need fast access to cash? With invoice finance, you can use your unpaid invoices to access up to $2M in funding. Choose between selective invoice finance or whole-of-book financing, and take control of your cash flow. Improve your business operations and grow your business.
