Abstract

In a scientific context, the main focus of sustainable supply chain management is on the creation and optimization of product and information flows; however, the management of financial flows receives insufficient attention. All effectively developed supply chain activities may collapse as a result of inadequate management of sustainable supply chain financial processes. In order to successfully develop systematically functioning processes of the international supply chain, it is necessary to analyze how to apply financing instruments in a targeted and effective manner. Adequate financing of the sustainable supply chain is the effect of great prospects and competitive advantage not only on a national scale but also in international markets. The aim of this research was to assess the importance of financing instruments used in international sustainable supply chain finance. Correlation-regression analysis was chosen for the research, which was designed to assess the factors of financial instruments of the dairy industry sustainable supply chain using the example of a company. The results showed that the key factor in the supply chain processes of the dairy products production company was the turnover ratio of buyers’ debts; therefore, in order for the company to improve the indicators of the sustainable supply chain, it should allocate more financing specifically to the turnover ratio of buyers’ debts.
