Benteler Trading International (BTI) offers innovative inventory financing solutions to corporates with key investor benefits

At a glance
BTI has developed a platform that allows corporates to monetize and derecognize inventories through buying or selling through BTI – at a competitive cost of capital

The story so far
BTI originated within a leading European automotive tier 1 supplier with ~€8.0B revenue and a 140-year history

BTI continues to be owned and supported by the founding family but is independent of the family-owned group company

What it achieves
Off-balance sheet financing of inventories through deferred recognition of inventory on balance sheet / earlier recognition of revenues on inventories

Frees up capital trapped in supply chains, improving ROCE, leverage and working capital

How it is done
As a trading company, BTI earns a mark-up on the inventories purchased / sold, which is used to repay the cost of financing and generate margin

Ordering, logistics, tracking and data is managed by a proprietary SAP system

Our customers include 3M, Unilever, Anheuser-Busch InBev, Sanofi, Engie GBS Solutions, Kellogg Company, Danone, Hershey’s, and many more.

Autonomous software is data-driven software that continuously morphs its behavior to the ever-changing underlying domain transactional data. It brings modern digital transformation capabilities like artificial intelligence, robotic process automation, natural language processing, and connected workspaces as out-of-the-box features for the finance & accounting domain.

Before the availability of autonomous software, finance stakeholders had to pick between a digital replacement of a paper-based solution or build & maintain custom RPA/AI-based tools in-house. In contrast, HighRadius’ Autonomous platform combines the best of both worlds to deliver measurable business outcomes such as DSO reduction, working capital optimization, bad-debt reduction, reduced month-end close timelines, and improved productivity in under six months.
