Beschreibung

Reverse factoring operation under the European Guarantee Fund (EGF) of trade payables of Italian corporates and mid-caps, improving access to finance of their small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) suppliers, but possibly also mid-caps and large corporates.

Additionality and Impact

The COVID19 pandemic constitutes an unprecedented challenge with very severe socio-economic consequences. One of the objectives of the EGF is to respond to the economic impact of the COVID19 pandemic outbreak, by ensuring that SMEs in the participating Member States have sufficient liquidity available and access to finance to weather the rapidly unfolding crisis, and are able to continue their development in mid/long term. The project will be implemented in Italy, where SMEs are at a greater disadvantage when it comes to access to finance than elsewhere in the EU. Supply chain guarantees, by allowing a faster collection of the invoices issued by a client, are an effective tool to ease financing constraints that, especially in Italy, affect SMEs. 

Ziele

The operation will allow an increase in the reverse factoring volumes available for suppliers to identified mid-cap and large corporate buyers enabling access to finance at favourable financing conditions for SME and mid-cap final beneficiaries.
