Company Review

Trend Analysis

LONDON RIVER SERVICES LIMITED exhibits a strong positive payment trend, with an average payment time of just 20 days. A significant 94% of invoices are consistently settled within 30 days, indicating reliable and prompt payment behavior. This trajectory suggests suppliers can generally expect payments well within standard terms.

Volatility Analysis

While generally prompt, there is a minor degree of payment volatility, with 9% of payments classified as late. Specifically, 3% of invoices are paid between 31-60 days and another 3% extend beyond 60 days, introducing a low but present risk of minor delays. This indicates a small element of unpredictability for a select portion of transactions.

Summary Analysis

Overall, LONDON RIVER SERVICES LIMITED presents a very low payment risk for suppliers, driven by its rapid average payment time and high compliance with 30-day terms. Suppliers can proceed with confidence, though they should be aware of the small chance (9%) of late payments, particularly the 3% that exceed 60 days. Regular monitoring of payment patterns for the first few invoices is a prudent risk mitigation strategy.
