If your Company needs Cashflow, Consider a Factoring Loan
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
Recently I had a client contact me looking to take out a Factoring Loan. It has been some time since I had heard it referred to as this, but what he was referring to was Accounts Receivable Factoring.
Technically, Factoring is not a real loan; it is an advance on money that your company is already owned. While the accounting guidelines can be argued one way or another, the fact is, when a Factoring Loan is done, the Receivables are verified with the party that owes the money and further verifies that they are going to pay the invoices.
Under this circumstance, the funds that are advanced to the company that raised the Invoices are merely an advance on the funds that will be collected under the short term agreement.
Other people refer to Accounts Receivable Factoring as Invoice Factoring. This is accurate and is only switching out the terms Accounts Receivable for Invoice so there is little confusion over this.
It is very impressive that the US Government is now Factoring the Invoices to the Automakers from the manufacturing suppliers in Michigan. This is a very positive and bold move on behalf of President Obama to mitigate the devastation in the Auto Industry. This also show the other manufactures that Invoice Factoring is a critical financing method for our future because we all know that cashflow is King.
The manufactures of United States and Canada have been torn apart by the recession we are currently in and many businesses have fallen due to the lack of working capital to pay suppliers, payroll and other operations expenses that the businesses need to support regardless if there are collections on their Accounts Receivable or not.
Many manufacturing companies over the last few years have not made it through our recession and many companies have been around for a long time, some were family business over generations which have suffered to the point of extension.
Whether you call it a Factoring Loan or Invoice Factoring or something else along those lines, be sure to take advantage of this Financing method for your business.
