Experts in Factoring

Factoring allows you to sell your receivables for immediate payment to get cash to finance your operating cycle. This is a suitable solution for any type of company as long as it works in B2B and serves corporates and professionals, the government or associations. Thanks to our factoring solutions, you can transfer the ownership of its trade receivables to a factor that offers in exchange for financing its working capital requirements.

Experts in Supply Chain Finance

Supply Chain Finance (SCF) offers contracts reserved for large companies that allow for their suppliers to be paid cash. If the supplier joins the program, Societe Generale Factoring offers pre-financing solutions for their invoices.

Supply Chain Finance programs are structured around the following figures: buyers or contractors, their suppliers, one or more financial partners (factors, banks) and a ‘servicer’, who manages and arranges access to the underlying electronic platform.
