Fesanco × Trantor: credit decisions in minutes, without internal friction

The Chilean company specialized in lifting solutions found in Trantor the balance between commercial speed and financial rigor.

Challenge

Slow B2B credit approvals

Average approval ranged between 7 and 21 days, causing bottlenecks and lost sales while teams waited for validations.

Challenge

Scattered data

Finance spent hours gathering and standardizing financial statements, trade references, and tax folders before any analysis could start.

Challenge

Internal friction

Sales needed speed; finance needed proof of solvency. Discussions were driven more by perceptions than by objective data.

2. The Trantor solution

An integrated flow that removes friction

Connecting tax sources, automating risk models, and sharing an actionable dashboard let Fesanco accelerate credit evaluation without losing governance.

Connection to up-to-date source data

Trantor automatically ingests tax PDFs from the SII and other official sources, ensuring teams work with the freshest information.

Finance gets a complete financial picture in minutes, with ratios calculated and consistent across clients.

Automated risk algorithms

Models evaluate liquidity, leverage, and sector risk with the depth of advanced financial reporting software.

The standardized score reduced subjective interpretation and let finance answer “yes” or “no” with quantitative backing.

Actionable dashboard

A visual report summarizes alerts, suggested limits, and decision traceability for every stakeholder.

Sales and finance share the same view, eliminating back-and-forth and keeping risk control without adding headcount.

3. Results

A benchmark close to “real-time credit”

By centralizing information and automating models, Fesanco went from days to minutes and jumped ahead of the competition without sacrificing risk policy. B2B customers experienced an agile process, key for loyalty.

Sales closed deals before other suppliers could respond, while finance kept risk control without growing the team and with full traceability.

4. Lessons learned

What Fesanco learned by automating its credit committee

Fresh tax data, transparent rules, and shared metrics showed it’s possible to accelerate without losing control.

  • Few things beat a recent PDF: working with up-to-date tax folders raised analysis quality.

  • Automating ≠ losing control: finance tunes thresholds and rules; technology removes mechanical work, not professional judgment.

  • Cultural alignment: a 30-minute SLA and objective score removed subjective debates between teams.

5. Next steps

Turn risk into a competitive advantage

After stabilizing credit onboarding, Fesanco plans to deepen continuous automation for every active client.

  • Automated periodic reviews for active accounts.

  • Dynamic credit limits based on projected cash flow.

  • Turn risk management into a sustainable commercial advantage.
