| Factoring is often a convenient - but relatively expensive - form of finance for weaker corporate credits.
| |
| | |
| The supplier sells its invoices, at a discount, to the factor. The factor then becomes responsible for collecting the debt.
| |
| | |
| A factoring agreement between the factor and a client sets out the terms on which a factoring arrangement is made.
| |
| | |
| | |
| As noted above, factoring arrangements can be with or without recourse.
| |
| | |
| Recourse factoring allows the factor to recover from the supplier/borrower any losses caused by bad debts.
