A significant proportion of the firm’s suppliers provide services that are charged directly to the firm’s clients as disbursements. These client disbursement invoices are paid on receipt of payment from the client with the payment period, for the purpose of the calculation of average time taken to pay invoices, taken from the date of the original invoice. The standard supplier payment period for non-client contracts is 30 days. The average number of days taken to make payments to non-disbursement suppliers in the reporting period was 19 days.
