About the Presentation
In this unstable economy, the financial supply chain and working capital management are a core focus of all companies.  Both buyers and suppliers within the supply chain want to extract working capital benefits, but need to manage conflicting objectives: buyers want to pay later and vendors want to collect faster while both seek to reduce costs wherever possible.  Supply Chain Finance can help fill this gap by leveraging the credit arbitrage between trading partners to create a “win-win” so that everyone’s objectives are met.  Bob Dyckman, Managing Director of Supply Chain Finance at Wells Fargo Capital Finance Jay Cook, will discuss 1) how executives of top performing  companies view the financial supply chain and manage working capital objectives, 2) how Supply Chain Finance programs can help companies achieve their goals, and 3) best practices with implementing Supply Chain Finance programs.”
