As the global economy restarts its engine after tumbling into the deepest recession in generations, suppliers and buyers are switching from survival to revival. To ensure liquidity gets to where it’s needed, technologically enabled working capital tools offer an attractive opportunity to smooth the cash conversion cycle, while connecting deep pools of credit to the real economy.

The search for yield is intensifying. Global interest rates are at historic lows with little prospect of significant rises in the short-term. Last week Euro zone borrowing costs fell, with Italian government bond yields arriving at an all-time low with the 10-year yield at less than 50bps.

Levantor Capital Limited (“Levantor”), a fintech that provides short term working capital solutions announced today that it had arranged in excess of US$3bn in short term financing for its customers since launch in mid-2017.

Whilst Covid-19 has hit many sectors of the economy extremely hard, some sectors have weathered or even grown during the crisis and associated quarantines. Q1 sales have been strong in the IT, Healthcare, Paper & Packaging and, perhaps unsurprisingly the alcoholic beverage sectors which have all remained open for business.

​Levantor Capital Limited, a successful London based FinTech providing short term working capital solutions, has appointed David Hicks as Corporate sales.

Global supply chains are stressed. Two years of pandemic and now war in Ukraine have wreaked havoc on the world’s complex and finely calibrated supply chains. Labour shortages, logistics chaos, sanctions and embargoes are causing shortages and price inflation across a range of vital raw materials. This has immediate knock-on effects on the price and availability of intermediate and finished goods.
