In the face of tight credit, some big retailers are using corporate charge cards to finance inventory, reports the New York Post. A major retail chain, Lord & Taylor, has begun to finance a small portion of its monthly merchandise shipments with an American Express card, says the newspaper. The Post’s sources also said AmEx is striking similar deals with other big chains, as the firms that have traditionally financed retail inventories have clamped down on credit.
