The Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) recorded more than threefold growth in the transaction value of its Digital Supply Chain Financing Program in 2025, reflecting increased adoption among corporate clients and suppliers nationwide.
The growth highlights the rising demand for faster and more accessible working capital solutions that help businesses maintain stable operations, strengthen supplier relationships, and build more resilient supply chains.
Faster payments through a digital platform
Introduced in 2024, BPI’s Digital Supply Chain Financing Program allows suppliers to receive early payment for approved invoices before their scheduled due dates.
Through the platform, participating corporate clients upload approved invoices eligible for financing. Suppliers can then select which invoices they want funded. Once approved, the proceeds are credited to their BPI accounts on the same day.
The digital process gives suppliers more control over their cash flow while reducing the time and administrative work traditionally associated with invoice financing.
Supporting more than 500 suppliers
BPI said the program has supported more than 12 corporate clients and over 500 suppliers across different industries.
“Strong supply chains are built on strong supplier relationships. Through the Digital SCF Program, we are helping businesses create a more sustainable ecosystem where suppliers—from MSMEs to large enterprises—have access to the financial support they need to grow and thrive,” said Louie Cruz, BPI Institutional Banking Head.
Faster access to working capital can help suppliers cover operational expenses, replenish inventory, fulfill new orders, and pursue growth opportunities without waiting for invoices to reach their original due dates.
Corporate buyers also benefit from having a more stable and financially capable supplier network. This can contribute to smoother operations, stronger business relationships, and greater supply chain resilience.
Expanding access to business financing
BPI plans to expand the program further as more companies adopt digital financing solutions.
Beyond providing working capital, the Digital Supply Chain Financing Program supports BPI’s broader commitment to business growth, sustainability, and financial inclusion.
