Factoring
companies are commercial finance companies that specializes in the purchase
of invoices for cash. Fees vary from factoring companies to factoring
companies and from client to client. They are determined by a combination
of your customer base creditworthiness, average payment cycle, invoice
size and factoring volume.
Factoring
companies provides over 100 billion dollars to industry each year. In
fact, it is an old financial service used by multi-billion dollar corporations
that is now available to smaller sized businesses to which banks are
reluctant to lend funds. Factoring companies are filling the tremendous
void that banks have created.
The Factoring
Client profile
You begin by filling out a simple client profile, which we will provide you. Please click here for company
profile. This profile will cover basics such as your company's name and address, the nature of your business, and information about your customers.
You may need to supply the factoring
companies with an accounts receivable aging report, existing customers' credit limits, or other related documents. Remember the factoring
company will attempt to determine the creditworthiness of your customers independent of their credit history with your company. Factoring
companies want the broader view of their overall credit status.

During this initial stage you will also cover basic financial arrangements with the factoring
company. For instance, what will be the monthly volume of invoices you want to factor(i.e. how liquid do you need to be)? What will the advance rate and the discount rate be? How quickly will the factoring
company issue the advance to you?
In most cases, the answers to these questions will vary depending on the financial strength of your customer(s) and the anticipated monthly sales volume to be factored. Variations between industries, length of time in operation, and general reputation of how risky a customer of yours may be. For instance, a long list of high-risk clients will cost you more in factoring fees than a short list of government agencies with a slow-pay history.
In the factoring business, volume is all important. The higher your volume(the dollar amount of invoices you factor), the more favorable your rates will be.
The factoring company will use the client profile you submit to determine if your company is suitable for factoring. This process is simply the factoring
company analyzing the risks versus the rewards, using the information you provided.
Once approved by the factoring
company, you can expect to negotiate terms and conditions. The negotiation process takes several aspects of the deal into consideration. For instance, if you want to factor $10,000, you can't expect as good a deal as a company that wants to factor $500,000.
During the negotiation process, you will become well aware of what it costs to factor your accounts receivable. After you reach an agreement with the factoring
company, the funding wheels begin to roll. The factoring company conducts due diligence by researching your customers' credit and any liens placed against your company. The factoring
company also confirms the legitimacy of your invoice before buying your receivables and advancing cash to you
