Auch das Liquiditäts- und Working Capital Management unterliegt einem ständigen Wandel. So hatte die Liquiditätssicherung nach Ausbruch der Finanzkrise 2008/09 in vielen Unternehmen höchste Priorität. In Zeiten niedriger Zinsen können die Kapitalkosten vernachlässigt werden, wodurch die Notwendigkeit sinkt, Bestände des Working Capital zu reduzieren. Bei steigenden Zinsen und/oder einer schwachen konjunkturellen Entwicklung verschärft sich dagegen der Zielkonflikt zwischen Sicherheit und Rentabilität.
Mögliche Verbesserungen ergeben sich beim Liquiditäts- und Working Capital Management durch die Digitalisierung, die den Informationsaustausch zwischen dem Unternehmen und seinemn Supply-Chain-Partnern beschleunigt. Damit lässt sich an vielen Stellen des Wertschöpfungsprozesses die Effizienz steigern.
This study analyses the impact of Basel III on the fair pricing of bank guarantee facilities.Guarantees are an important risk mitigation instrument between exporters and importers in international trade and regularly a prerequisite for cross border sales contracts to be closed. Basel III – which shall be introduced from 2013 onwards - is a new regulation stipulating higher capital requirements for banks compared to the predecessor Basel II. It will therefore have an impact on the pricing of guarantee facilities which banks provide to exporting companies, making it also a crucial regulation for the cost of exportation overall. The study compares those contents of Basel III and Basel II which are particularly relevant for guarantees in order to identify and crystallize pricing-relevant changes in the regulations and their respective impact potential. The Basel frameworks are analyzed part by part and reviewed in terms of relevance for guarantees. In case of ambiguity the analysis is verified by complementary expert interviews. References and examples are mainly focusing on the German banking system but the basic conclusions can be generalized for those countries adopting Basel III.1 As the result, a case study expresses the quantitative outcomes of different scenarios and the impact of the different price determining factors on the overall fair pricing of bank guarantee facilities.
