Industry ranking
The payment trend for CBRE GLOBAL SERVICES (UK) LIMITED exhibits a bimodal pattern, with 50% of payments made promptly within 30 days and the remaining 50% significantly delayed beyond 60 days. This indicates a lack of consistent payment timing, with no payments falling into the 31-60 day bracket, suggesting a split trajectory rather than a gradual shift.
The payment behavior is highly volatile and lacks predictability, as half of all invoices are paid within optimal terms while the other half are considerably delayed past 60 days. This significant variance presents a substantial reliability risk for suppliers, making accurate cash flow forecasting challenging due to the 50% likelihood of extreme lateness.
Overall, engaging with CBRE GLOBAL SERVICES (UK) LIMITED carries elevated payment risk due to the 50% probability of payments exceeding 60 days, despite an equal chance of timely settlement. Suppliers should factor this significant payment uncertainty into their decision-making and consider mitigation strategies such as requiring upfront deposits or negotiating shorter payment terms with strict late payment penalties.

CBRE Global Services (UK) Limited is a private limited company incorporated in December 2017 and registered in London. Companies House records its nature of business as that of a holding company, not elsewhere classified. Filing history shows it previously had CBRE Group, Inc as a person with significant control, a relationship that ceased in December 2023, after which Acquisition Company Finance Limited was notified as the new person with significant control. The company files full annual accounts and confirmation statements and has recorded several allotments of shares in recent years. No description of trading operations, products or services is available in the evidence supplied, so this entity should be understood as a holding company within a wider corporate structure rather than an operating business.
