Definition
• Factoring is a financial transaction whereby a business sells its accounts receivable (i.e., invoices) to a third party (called a factor) at a discount in exchange for immediate money with which to finance continued business

Parties Involved
• The one who sells the receivable • The Debtor • The Factor

Mechanism
• Your company delivers the goods or services to the customer • An invoice is generated and sent to the client and the factoring company

Mechanism
• The factoring company advances you between 70% and 90% of the gross value of the invoice. This is your 1st installment • Once the factoring company receives payment from your customer, the remaining funds are advanced as your 2nd installment, less the financing fee

Functions of a Factor
• • • • • Financing facility- trade debts Maintenance/administration of sales ledger Collection facility- of accounts receivable Assumption of credit risk- credit control Provision of advisory services

Types
• Recourse – Default Risk stays with the selling company • Non- Recourse – Default risk is transferred to the factor

Factoring v/s Bills discounting
• Factoring is the sale of receivables whereas invoice discounting is borrowing where the receivable is used as collateral.

Factoring v/s Bank Loan
• Emphasis is on the value of the receivables (essentially a financial asset), not the firm’s credit worthiness • Not a loan – it is the purchase of a financial asset (the receivable) • Bank loan involves two parties whereas factoring involves three.
