The reported data includes intragroup payments. Shell is committed to treating our suppliers fairly and continues to monitor and improve our payment processes to support timely payment of suppliers. A number of interventions to improve payment performance have been implemented during 1H 2020 which are beginning to take effect in June. Further a change to the process for payment of invoices which fall due over a weekend will be implemented in the second half of the year. This will have limited impact on the average days for supplier payments but will reduce reported overdue payments.
