Line 1: Line 1:
The sale or transfer by a supplier of legal title to accounts receivable (invoices).
(FMCG).  


The supplier sells or transfers title to the receivables to a third party known as a factor.
Products that are sold quickly at relatively low cost.
 
The arrangement can be either with or without recourse.
 
 
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.
