Abstract

This research investigates the empowerment of supply chain finance (SCF) by blockchain technology to achieve optimized cash flow. By analyzing the critical issues inherent in traditional SCF and leveraging the principles and advantages of blockchain, this paper explores its potential empowering mechanisms. It distills universally applicable pathways for corporate cash flow optimization, thereby offering novel perspectives for SCF development. Validated through a case study of TCL’s JDH supply chain financing platform, this research endeavors to construct an integrated theoretical framework encompassing “technology empowerment – scenario adaptation – mechanism innovation.” It systematically deconstructs key blockchain features such as distributed ledgers, digital credentials, and smart contracts. Subsequently, it synthesizes generalizable models for trusted data sharing, credit transmission and financing cost optimization, and dynamic risk monitoring and response under high automation, offering a reference for decision-making by enterprises and financial institutions.
