A drastic changing scenario is observed to manage Financial Supply Chain all over the "World" except Bangladesh. A few Banks or financial institutions in Bangladesh are implementing the concepts of Financial Supply Chain Management to provide benefits to the buyers (Anchors) and suppliers (Vendors). We explored the benefits and challenges of FSC from the management perspective of Bangladesh. The researchers made an effort to support our findings through a case study involving three parties: Bank Asia, Banga Millers limited (a sister concern of PRAN Company), and marginal suppliers. The researchers establish that trios can benefit if a strong Financial Supply Chain system can be established with the help of the latest computer software like VEEFIN. Researchers are aware of the fact that technology makes data transparent and does transaction settlement more successfully. The main objective of this paper is to discover the loopholes and challenges to popularizing the concept ...

The purpose of this paper is to examine how bank-enabled electronic financial supply chain management (FSCM) systems influence the relationship between business partners in dyadic supply chains in emerging economies such as India. Specifically, we utilized transaction cost theoretic lens to: (1) explore how banks, via FSCM, influence the financial and material flows in supply chains (2) detail the changes to exchange characteristics between supply chain partners and (3) evaluate the performance outcomes of changes to the exchanges’ characteristics. We utilized inductive, multiple case study as the methodological approach. We collected data via semi-structured interviews from seven firms. In all, we conducted 20 in-depth interviews lasting over 20 hours. Our findings are that Supply chain members would adopt FSCM to make transactions cost efficient. Banks would motivate their clients to encourage the adoption of FSCM system to expand market and reduce business uncertainty. Adoption o...
Abstract - Financial supply chain management consists of the holistic and comprehensive activities of planning and controlling all the financial processes both within a company and with the external parties. In contrast to physical supply chain, financial supply chain focuses on the flow of cash and other related financial transaction rather than the flow of physical goods. There are parallels in physical supply chain, information supply chain and financial supply chain. From the moment a purchase order is created, the information need to be transferred to the next parties. After the physical goods were received from suppliers, payment will be sent. The whole purchasing process consists of all three supply chains; effectively managing the supply chains can increase efficiency and accuracy. The traditional financial supply chain consists of many paper based document and paper forms, especially when international trade happens. Paper based purchase orders, invoices, checks and letter of credits are heavily involved; human mistakes and error inputs are common; as a result, there is decrease the efficiency of the company’s working capital management. The current financial supply chain management aims at eliminating the paper based documents, and improving the integrity of parties being involved, such as financial institutions, logistics, and suppliers. The two main cycles involve in the financial supply chain management are P2P (Purchase-to-pay) and O2C (order-to-cash). These two sets of processes and the relationship between them create the company’s working capital requirement. Treasurer should manage and integrate both cycles seamlessly in order to maximize the cash on hand during the operating cycle. Integrating ERP system with financial supply chain management helps the information flows to internal parties and external parties easily, and improves the integrity and quality of the financial information being transmitted. In this report, a case study using SAP ERP system in managing financial supply chain will be discussed in detail.

— The present study aims to examine the idea of supply chain management in the financial institutions like banks in the region of Indonesia. After the detailed examination of existing literature current research work has developed a model for the supply chain in financial perspective with its physical implication as well. This study use panel or pooled data taken from annual report of Islamic and conventional banks in Indonesia during 2012-2017 period and consist of 10 Islamic and 24 conventional banks. Pooled regression is used to estimate the effect of bank-specific such as profitability, growth, tangibility, earning volatility and size on supply chain management. The finding of this study shows that profitability and growth have positive and significant effect on supply chain management, while size and tangible asset have negative impact on it of conventional banks. Earning volatility does not have any influence on supply chain management both for Islamic and conventional banks....

In this study, the authors demonstrate how Supply Chain Management (SCM) theory has evolved over time and how it applies in the banking industry which represents as one of the service industries. Various milestones of SCM evolution in the various industries have been identified by the authors to make it simpler to grasp. To begin with, the inception of logistics was first introduced in the 1950s. It was in the 1970s when logistics was first formed. The concept of supply chain management and the idea of coordinating the activities of enterprises within the chain were created in the 1980s. Logistics and supply chain management were finally separated in the 1990s, and supply chain management underwent a change. Throughout the early 2000s of global financial crisis, capital markets were extremely volatile, placing Supply Chain Finance in the spotlight, and eventually, the banking industry demanded more rigorous study from the standpoint of SCM. Though there is very little scholarly research in the banking industry, the authors intend to accomplish supply chain management model in the banking industry. The outcomes of this study will provide new avenues for research in the supply chain finance and banking industries. Therefore, this research unlocks the further frontiers for the prospective researchers in this area.

Purpose-This paper aims to provide a literature review of the Financial Supply Chain Management-FSCM concept by scrutinizing both theoretical and empirical research contributions. Design/methodology/approach-A review and analysis of selected, up to date theoretical and empirical literature is provided in order to prove the significance of this discipline in modern management theory and provide useful conclusions. Moreover, an emphasis is given on the contemporary aspects of FSCM in terms of collaboration among companies, suppliers and financing institutions. Findings-The field is a relatively new one. Despite the crisis-enhanced research interest and the growing importance of FSCM, academic contributions and discourse on the subject remain fragmented and vague. Mainly conceptual approach dominates; research methods employed are mostly empirical surveys and case studies, with the main focus given on the manufacturing industry while the bank "dimension" in the FSCM equation is neglected. At the same time, scarce research efforts have been identified towards the systematic documentation of the core concepts and formative elements of FSCM in the direction of building a "general theory of FSCM". Originality/value-The paper provides a literature review of the FSCM discipline, identifies gaps and challenges in the field while providing insights on a future research agenda, thus preparing the ground for FSCM standardization and hopefully initiating a fruitful academic dialogue on the subject.

Supply chain finance is newly emerging concept and grab attend of financial sercive providers, buyers and suppliers. This study empirically examines the impact of supply chain finance solutions (SCFS), banks financial risk on financial service providers' financial performance using panel dataset of Asian Development Bank registered countries (Pakistan, China and Bangladesh) from 2012-2021. By breaking new ground, supply chain finance solution index is developed by combining several solutions to measure its impact on financial service provider financial performance. The results show a significant impact of supply chain finance solutions on financial performance of financial service providers. Furthermore, by offering SCF solutions a bank is able to reduce its financial risk for the external parties (e.g., investors, shareholders) This research encourages financial service providers (banks) to embrace the supply chain finance solution to enhance financial performance and allows them to evaluate their supply chain finance solutions investments as a technique to mitigate financial risk.

The flow of financial resources in supply chains is increasingly drawing the centre of attention. Even the task of supply chain managers begins with the financing and capital budgeting decisions of value creation relevant investments and ends only after the payment from the customer is received. As a consequence new tasks at the intersection of finance and logistics/supply chain management open new business areas for banks as well as financial and logistics service providers. This paper can be understood as a first step enabling executives to look behind the Supply Chain Finance (SCF) approach.

Due to innovations in information technology, the physical supply chain has seen significant improvements in efficiency and effectiveness. In contrast, there are several performance gaps in the financial supply chain. The information age is characterized by the technology that accumulates large amounts of data and processes it into meaningful information for management. The accounting function, however, still continues to provide the financial information. According to a study by Forrester Research, accounting professionals across the country process more than one billion invoices each week, and 97 percent of those invoices are still being processed manually. Automating all processes starting from when a purchase order is generated to when payment is ultimately received creates both new efficiencies and reduced costs by providing better visibility of all aspects of financial supply chain management. This paper analyzes the various cost information processing mechanisms in financial supply chains, examines automated alternatives and offers recommendations to achieve an optimal financial supply chain.
Channel financing (CF) has emerged as a transformational paradigm in supply chain management. It is an effective tool for managing the interdependencies between the physical and the financial supply chains. It is also a win-win proposition for all the supply chain partners. In this paper, 6 dimensions of CF have been identified. Organizational study has been carried out in 60 Indian companies to find out the challenges faced by them in CF and determine desirable solutions. Perceptual study has been carried out with 300 CF experts to identify and examine the desirable characteristics of CF information technology (IT) platform. It comes out that visibility of entire supply chain financial information; channel collaborations; and leveraging external expertise for financial risk sharing are the cornerstone of value creation. Furthermore, integrated CF IT platform provides better security for financial information exchange as well as better data consistency for process integration over singular optimization.

Information systems have developed along the supply chain to support logistics management in all types of industries. Most of this effort has been focused at reducing the levels of working capital by increasing the efficiency of information flow from market to raw materials suppliers. Similar developments have also occurred to support other business processes, for example connecting together new product design and marketing databases to create virtual corporations. Electronic commerce and associated technologies such as ED1 are the norm in advanced supply chains and it is common for their use to be mandatory when trading with large companies. The manufacturing of a product is now seen as a whole process across the supply chain rather than a series of separate operations managed and controlled by different organisations. The management of logistics has been fundamentally re-engineered and designed to focus on quality and time-based strategies. However developments in the handling of financial information between functions within companies and across organisational boundaries have lagged far behind the developments in logistics management. This paper explores the potential benefits of cooperative relationships in the financial supply chain to reduce the time delays and increase the level of certainty regarding financial transactions between separate organisations. The financial benefits are estimated using published data to provide a potential saving of 3.8% of the value of the transaction.

The present study aims to examine the idea of supply chain management in the financial institutions like banks in the region of Indonesia. After the detailed examination of existing literature current research work has developed a model for the supply chain in financial perspective with its physical implication as well. By focusing on 5 multinational banking firms, current research work has studied the causal association between the SCM and banking sector for their performance. Findings of the study explain that both SCM and working of financial institutions are highly linked to each other. In short, SCM is a meaningful tool for the banking firms or the organizational performance and various departmental heads are very much aware to SCM practices for the greater banking performance. The core limitations of the study are very limited sample size and just focusing on the one selected banking category (International banks). However, the practical implications of the study are very much significant.

Expansive economic, production and commercial development today has made businesses and enterprises to have active presence and contribution in network-based and chain economy. Although focusing on this approach has brought some privileges and productivities for the firms which are members of networks and supply chains, it has been accompanied by various problems and complexities for financial crisis management, cash flow and flow capital amount of the foundations and their commercial partners. To overcome such problem, besides developing the concepts of supply chain management and logistics, Financial Supply Chain Management (FSCM) was also promoted to minimize inefficiencies of financial flow in supply chain using financial, engineering and management approaches, and to provide an effective management ground for cash inventory and flow capital all throughout the supply chain by making use of various tools and techniques of supply chain finance and/or SCF. Hence, by changing approach and role of financial services provider from just supplier of financial resources as the commercial partners of economic and commercial firms, it caused that a major part of managerial duties of financial flow of chain enterprises could be defined in collaboration with financial services provider, and they may be executed in a more desirable manner considering the capacities and capabilities of banks and financial institutes. Thus, regarding the significance of financial flow management in the chain and benefitting the principles and fundamentals of research by fact finding and case study, it was tried to present a framework to make use of financial flow management and its principles and fundamentals effectively by reviewing evidences as well as applicable experiences in this area. The present paper emphasized that as logistic services providers are responsible in supply chains to improve inventory level; financial services providers also have the same role concerning liquidity level in the chains. Therefore, by making coordination and integrity in the inventory flows, information and financial flows through supply chain, we can handle financial risks and provide more stable value flow in supply chain till distribution, and create a ground better for materializing objectives of the firms which are members of supply chain.
Operations and Supply Chain Management: An International Journal
Recently, the number of Vietnamese small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is rapidly growing. Since most of them are run under owner's capital, they easily face cash constraint situation during their operational life cycle. Hence, the demand for Vietnamese SMEs to optimize their liquidity has been increasing and becoming a top concern. Previous studies in the supply chain field focus much on the physical flow of products/services and informational flow. Meanwhile, the financial aspect as well as its sustainability in the supply chain has been received more attention after the financial crisis of 2008. This even gets more crucial when the uncertainties in the global economy and financial markets increase pressure on businesses' cash as well as their supply chains (SC). Considering the role of this concept and its potential, this study tries to explore and examine the level of understanding about the monetary supply chain of SMEs based in Danang city and how they can access financial sources for more stability and sustainable business. The truth is many SMEs face existing problems to access financial sources like banks as well as establishing a long-lasting SC. Without a doubt the fund-raising information infrastructure in Danang city is not well developed, and local businesses still depend on financial sources from banks. Also, the connection between buyers and suppliers is still weak as they do not invest much in the infrastructure or production line to create a common ground with the business's product characteristics. In addition to that, this paper suggests some implications for the development of the local SMEs in general and their supply chains in particular.

The concept of Supply Chain Finance has emerged through the globalization of trade. The common sense within a supply chain is that suppliers are trying to receive their payments as early as possible while buyers are increasing their payment terms. Supply Chain Finance attempts to cope with this problem and creates opportunities for all parties. With the development of Supply Chain Management, two approaches gained the most recognition; Working Capital Management and Supply Chain Finance. Both are considered drivers for a financially stable supply chain. A Supply Chain Finance solution is able to create a 'win-win' situation for both buyer and supplier by giving the buyer the opportunity to extent payment terms and pay the supplier in advance. This process allows all parties to free up operating working capital and provide financing in favour of the supplier. A Supply Chain Finance solution implementation includes three factors: First, a company must be internally in line with the solution. Secondly, the right financial provider (bank) must be identified. Lastly, there has to be the opportunity for open account trade. Recent papers confirm that the credit crunch of 2009 was a main driver for Supply Chain Finance. Financial providers and organizations have become aware that it is of great importance to manage their capital and especially the part tied to the supply chain. This phenomenon enhanced the popularity of SCF. Supply Chain Finance attempts to cope with this problem and creates opportunities for both parties. SCF has matured yet, there are still some gaps when it comes to a single definition. Furthermore, it appears that suppliers are hesitant to adopt Supply Chain Finance because there is little evidence of the actual cost savings and its benefits. This thesis aims to provide a single definition by reviewing the theory of Supply Chain Finance and provide the reader with an implementation checklist and the benefits of it. The theory will then be backed up by expert interviews.
