The importance of SCF is briefly presented in this chapter.
The researcher also provides rationales of choosing the studied topic. Research objectives and research questions are proposed. This chapter highlights the scope of work and what the contribution of the thesis. Rationale of the study The role of supply chain management has been increasing over the time given to the fact that the competition in business world becomes more intense.
To compete well in the market, the organizations must pay attention to their supply chain (SC) and to identify the way of effectively and efficiently managing their SC (Marak and Pillai, 2018). Regarding to the importance of SC and supply chain management (SCM), there are tremendous efforts from previous researchers to reveal how to improve physical and information flows between the focal companies and their suppliers and customers but there are less number of empirical evidences to be developed to address financial aspects of SC and SCM (Bailey and Francis, 2008; Lamoureux and Evans, 2011; Caniato et al. Recently, supply chain finance (SCF) is more and more critical products and services to the organizations, especially after the global financial crisis which was happened in late of 2008 (Marak and Pillai, 2018). Global financial crisis raised the concerns to the banks and the investors regarding to high default rate from their loans.
In this context, SCF market has been changing in the way of trade credit extension but it leads to unexpected result as weak suppliers are subjected to higher payment period or get delaying in their repayment (Fabbri and Klapper, 2016). The behavior of weak suppliers result to the higher risk in SCF process (Raddatz, 2010; Boissay and Gropp, 2007). Therefore, the need of revising current SCF management model and identify the ways to improve SCF process are urgent need. 1 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com During the time, there are literatures which are developed about SCF (Stemmler and Seuring, 2003; Hofmann, 2005; Gomm, 2010).
Some empirical evidences are provide in the way of defining SCF, determining of the benefits from participating SCF programs, and proposing SCF‟s initiatives (Gelsomino et al., 2016; Xu et al. However, previous researchers are less touching to the outcome of SCF as well as determining key successful factors to SCF programs. For chief executive officers focusing on profitable growth, working capital control has become a key metric. Working capital represents the amount of day-by-day operating liquidity available to a business.
Supply chain finance can be defined (EBA, 2013) as the use of financial instruments, practices and technologies for optimizing the management of the working capital and liquidity tied up in supply chain processes for collaborating business partners. The development of advanced technologies to track and control events in the physical supply chain creates opportunities to automate the initiation of SCF interventions. Supply Chain Finance aims to improve the financial efficiency of the supply chain and substantially reduce the working capital of both buyers and suppliers. It allows buyers to extend payment terms while providing suppliers access to better financing rates.
It creates a true win – win for the parties involved as one of the most attractive tools for companies to diversify funding sources, enrich and solidify the relationships with their trade partners.There are benefits of having a banking partner with local and global knowledge of cash and trade. It is also important to retain an advisor that can ensure compliance and regulatory adherence as well as the operational infrastructure and product capability that is going to have financial impact (Deutsche Bank 2016) As one of biggest providers of trade product with its global strategy, Standard Charter Bank (SC Bank) is offering comprehensive suite of SCF solution. SCF at Standard Chartered Bank is a partnership with selected corporate clients to provide working capital support for their chosen suppliers and buyers. The strength of the client‟s supply chain linkage (i.
the commercial arrangements and relationships between buyer and seller) is given due consideration in evaluating credit quality of 2 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com suppliers/buyers. This is very different from the traditional practice of standalone risk evaluation which was focused only on suppliers/buyers financial strength and historic financial performance. Research objectives and research questions Given to the problem statement above, the thesis‟s research objectives are: - To define a framework and a checklist in which key successful factors to SCF programs to be developed and measured - To determine the desirable outcome of SCF programs - To examine how key successful factors to be maintained in the case study of Standard Chartered Bank Then, the thesis addresses the following research questions: - What are key successful factors to SCF program? - What are the desirable outcomes of SCF programs? - How key successful factors to SCF program to be maintained in Standard Chartered Bank? - What are the recommendations to the financial managers in Standard Chartered Bank to effectively maintain SCF program? 1. Scope of the study The scope of the thesis is chosen as below: - Content of the study: Supply chain finance programs in global commercial banking industry.
