Vendor finance
Suppliers request financing against receivables from an anchor corporate. The bank provides early payment to the supplier, and the anchor pays the bank at the invoice due date.

CUSTOMER STORY
Connecting corporate relationships with supplier and dealer financing
KB Bank Indonesia uses Bankware’s Supply Chain Finance solution to serve suppliers and dealers around its corporate customers. Operating since 2022, the standalone platform brings vendor and dealer financing into one application, with Bankware managing the infrastructure and application operations.
For a commercial bank, an anchor corporate relationship creates opportunities to serve the businesses that supply it or distribute its products. Those businesses have different working-capital needs: suppliers may need earlier payment for receivables, while dealers need funding to purchase stock.
KB Bank Indonesia needed a platform to support these financing relationships. Vendor finance and dealer finance provided two ways to extend its wholesale banking offering beyond the anchor corporate itself.
The solution brings bank, anchor corporate, supplier and dealer interfaces into a common application. It supports agreements and financing limits, invoice-related financing requests, bank approval, disbursement and repayment tracking. A common client register brings together partner, account and user information.
Suppliers request financing against receivables from an anchor corporate. The bank provides early payment to the supplier, and the anchor pays the bank at the invoice due date.
Dealers request financing to purchase from an anchor corporate. The bank pays the anchor on the dealer’s behalf, and the dealer repays the bank at maturity.
The bank retains responsibility for financing decisions, credit limits, funding and collection. The platform supports the workflow and records connecting those activities.
Bankware provides the platform as a standalone SaaS service and manages its infrastructure and application operations. KB Bank Indonesia uses the application to operate its vendor and dealer financing business.
The service began in 2022 and continues to operate. This delivery model allows the bank to use a dedicated SCF application while Bankware maintains the technology environment behind it.
