This document discusses supply chain finance as a third type of financing for organizations, in addition to debt and equity. It presents four levers - strategic sourcing, purchasing programs, inventory management, and sourcing negotiations - that can be implemented to improve an organization's balance sheet, income statement, cash flow, revenue and costs. An example is given of applying these levers to a $50 million manufacturer, showing how $1 million could be added to its bottom line by reducing material costs, SG&A expenses, inventory levels, and days in the cash-to-cash cycle.
