Financing solution for companies in international operations

Export advance1 is the solution to finance your international payments every time you make a sale abroad, whether it is in euros or in another currency. An option that will allow you to:

  • Show the world a solvent image of your company allowing you to sell over the long term, bringing forward your receipts via any of the means of payment.
  • Monitor all your operations (check accounting settlements, copy of Swift message, shipping documents, etc.) through electronic banking.
  • And get finance at more attractive interest rates in certain currencies (if you have a return of these).
  • The ability tohedge your exchange rate differences.

How does Export Advance work?

The export advance payment makes the internationalisation of your company easier by offering you very attractive conditions:

  • Financing is linked to specific exports.
  • We advance the total or partial amount of the operation when the merchandise is shipped.
  • You have currency solutions in the case your collections are from countries outside the Euro Zone and you suffer an exchange risk.
  • You will receive support and advice from international business specialist managers.
  • You will have facilities in the management and the option to finance international collections.

 Banco Santander's Export advance is a fast, safe and transparent service, which allows you to take control of all operations online.
