Intesa Sanpaolo Strengthens Its Supply Chain Finance Program With an Innovative Dynamic Discounting Service Now Available to Businesses Thanks to the Agreement With Kyriba

Large buyers with significant excess liquidity can now offer suppliers advanced payment of invoices with a discount on the price that has been previously agreed upon.

This new capability opens opportunities to optimize excess liquidity cycles while improving corporate margins, thereby simplifying supplier management and integrating flows and payments.

Companies can now access the new service directly from Intesa Sanpaolo’s Inbiz platform.

Intesa Sanpaolo has signed a memorandum of understanding with Kyriba, a global fintech leader in supply chain finance solutions, to create and make available an innovative Dynamic Discounting service for global businesses.
