Abstract

The chapter focuses on the “financial supply chain”, which can be viewed as the sequence of financial events and processes that take place in parallel to the commercial transactions between supply chain partners. Supply chain finance (SCF) is defined as the use of financial instruments, practices, and technologies to optimize the management of the working capital and liquidity tied up in supply chain processes for collaborating business partners. The chapter discusses working capital management in supply chains and collaborative management of the cash-to-cash cycle in a supply chain. Selected supply chain finance instruments and the role of SCF players are described in more detail.
