Some suppliers just don’t give an option to extend their payment terms, so a sure-fire way to increase your days payable outstanding (DPO) is to set up reverse factoring agreements, says Vicky Lister, Accounts Payable Manager at Nestle EU.

• Selling the reverse factoring idea
• Working with the bank
• Understanding what training you need
