As Southeast Asia’s supply chains evolve under China+1 strategies, working capital constraints are intensifying. Supply chain finance offers a way to unlock liquidity, support suppliers, and strengthen resilience through buyer-led programs and digital platforms. Regulatory alignment and greater SME awareness can further drive adoption.
Accelerating Sustainable Recovery in Southeast Asia
Southeast Asia’s post-pandemic recovery is increasingly shaped by climate and social risks that demand regional cooperation.
