The Platform automatically adjusts for Bank Holidays in two ways:
No invoices are funded on a weekend or Bank Holiday; and
No repayments are due on a weekend or Bank Holiday.
Disbursements
Invoices also will not be funded on Bank Holidays - they will be funded on the first business day after a weekend or Bank Holiday.
Repayments
The Platform ensures that no repayments are due on a weekend or Bank Holiday. If the payment terms would result in settlement being due on a weekend or Bank Holiday, the Platform makes the settlement due on the first business day prior to the weekend or Bank Holiday.
For example: if a facility has 30 day terms and an invoice funded on 2 December would result in repayment being due on New Year’s Day which is a Bank Holiday for the Funder, the repayment would instead be due on 31 December and the tenor would be adjusted to 29 days. If 31 December was a Sunday, settlement would be due on the Friday beforehand (29 December).
Confirming Bank Holidays
Each year, Finverity confirms the dates of Bank Holidays with each funding party - please get in touch with support@finverity.com if you would like to check the Bank Holidays we have on file for you, or if a new Bank Holiday has been announced.
