Taulia Debuts Enhanced Discounting

By Julie Muhn (@julieschicktanz) Posted on February 11, 2015
Categories: FinovateEurope 2015, Taulia

This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.

Taulia showed how its Taulia Enhanced Discounting (TED) enables organizations to offer financing for suppliers.

Taulia Enhanced Discounting (TED) aims to revolutionize the funding of supply chain finance. TED combines the benefits of traditional dynamic discounting – when corporations offer an early payment to a supplier in exchange for a small discount – with a flexible supplier financing programme, which allows organizations to choose to use their own cash or the capital of a third-party financial institution, to capture early payment discounts.

With TED, organizations can offer their suppliers uninterrupted, affordable financing regardless of their own cash positions, operating obligations, or financial forecasts. Taulia is so confident of the value that TED delivers, that it guarantees its customers savings of £1M a year.

Presenters: Matthew Stammers, director, European marketing; Christophe Juvanon, director, European solutions consulting

Product launch: February 2014

Metrics: $70M in equity raised, more than 200 employees across the globe including offices in San Francisco, London, Düsseldorf, and Sofia; 300,000+ supplier connections on the Taulia network

This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateEurope 2015.

Nostrum Group demonstrated how its digital lending platform enables customers to service their accounts when and where they want.

Nostrum is launching the next iteration of its core lending system to satisfy this requirement and lead the market, fitting with our core strategy of making lending cheaper, faster, and safer, reducing operational costs for lenders whilst also providing the required level of support 24/7 when traditional call centres would not be available, allowing consumers to get information immediately whenever they want and, critically, through a secure channel.
