The Challenge
A reputable UAE-based general trading company, operating for over 30 years, faced significant challenges in managing its international payments through multiple banks. Despite having established relationships with these banks, the company encountered two main issues:
Delayed payments to suppliers in Asia and South America, affecting inventory replenishment and cash flow.

Reduced costs for foreign exchange transactions, improving the overall financial health of the company.
