Enabling SMEs to Trade Efficiently Domestically and Internationally
Providing funding to enable SMEs to thrive and grow has been Bibby Financial Services (BFS) reason for being for over 40 years. Perhaps less known is that we’ve been supporting cost effective international trade through our foreign exchange services for over a decade!
FX Risk: An Opportunity for Broker Value
One of the more complex areas of international trade for any business is managing foreign exchange risk. Over half of the 500 respondents in our recent survey stated they’d been negatively impacted by currency volatility in the past year. Our findings showed just 36% of those trading overseas use specialist FX providers. Doing so is opportunity for businesses to reduce margin erosion and BFS working with you is opportunity to partner together to connect them with the solution that they need.
Combined FX and Invoice Finance Solutions for Greater Efficiency
Being able to combine an Invoice Finance facility with FX and pay overseas suppliers directly from the facility can create the efficiency and cost effectiveness that businesses need to support domestic and overseas trading.
How Bibby Financial Services Supports Brokers and Their Clients
At Bibby Financial Services, we work closely with brokers to support SMEs with tailored, scalable solutions that meet both day-to-day and long-term needs. Our ability to provide multi-layered solutions can enhance the funding we are able to offer your clients.
Invoice Finance:
Unlocks cash tied up in unpaid invoices, providing access to funds within 24 hours. Flexible funding which grows as the business grows and avoids taking on additional debt.
Export Invoice Finance
Provides upfront payment of overseas invoices and supports clients with the complexity of international trading through access to export specialists.
Cashflow Advance and Cashflow Loans:
Can be used effectively alongside Invoice Finance to provide additional funding over and above the core facility.
Foreign Exchange:
Offers competitive rates and enables efficient international payments. Spot conversions support immediate needs, and we can offer market leading 0% Deposit Forward contract facilities (vs market average 5-10%), which support business cashflow and help minimise the impact of future currency fluctuations.
Asset Finance:
Releases cash from existing assets or removes the need for significant upfront investment. Leasing, Hire Purchase and Refinancing options available.
Our national broker network plays a vital role in our continued success, with a significant amount of new business originating through partner introductions.
