How a Seller Loan Works [†]

HSBC Trade Loans bridge the working capital gap between procurement/production and collection of sales proceeds. Trade Loans for Sellers are used to finance input costs associated with production of goods linked to specific POs/DC or support working capital requirements upon delivery/shipment of goods and services.
