Why 270 days maturities on commercial paper and where does the 270 days come from and why?
270 days is an arbitary limit within the United States, and is set by the Federal Reserve Board. In Canada and Europe, the limit is one year. A term is set because investments of a longer term are of the nature of stocks and bonds, and would be subject to SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) Registration, as public stock offerings. While most commercial paper is for much less that the limit, companies will turn over (re-write) paper to stay within the limits. and avoid SEC Registration necessities. alg

Why is commercial paper used?
Commercial paper is used by companies as a short-term financing tool to meet immediate cash flow needs, such as funding inventory purchases or covering operating expenses. It typically has maturities ranging from a few days to a year and is issued at a discount to its face value, allowing businesses to secure funds quickly and efficiently. By utilizing commercial paper, companies can avoid the higher costs associated with bank loans and maintain liquidity without long-term debt commitments.
What is the so-called 'commercial paper market' in economics and finance?
An unsecured, short-term debt instrument issued by a corporation, typically for the financing of accounts receivable, inventories and meeting short-term liabilities. Maturities on commercial paper rarely range any longer than 270 days. The debt is usually issued at a discount, reflecting prevailing market interest rates. Commercial paper is not usually backed by any form of collateral, so only firms with high-quality debt ratings will easily find buyers without having to offer a substantial discount (higher cost) for the debt issue. A major benefit of commercial paper is that it does not need to be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as long as it matures before nine months (270 days), making it a very cost-effective means of financing. The proceeds from this type of financing can only be used on current assets (inventories) and are not allowed to be used on fixed assets, such as a new plant, without SEC involvement.
