Debt Factoring
What is Debt Factoring and how does it work?
Debt Factoring is another term for Invoice Factoring and occurs when your accounts receivable is raised by a business and then passed onto a Debt Factoring company. This company will release up to 90% of the invoice’s value and then chase the payment from the debtor on your behalf. Once received, they will give you the remaining value of the invoice, minus their fees for providing the service.
With Hitachi Capital Invoice Finance, we handle your credit control, allowing you to concentrate on other areas of the business instead of chasing up late payments.
As your business grows, so does the available funding. With Debt Factoring you don’t need to negotiate new terms as your flexible funding line increases with your turnover.
What are the benefits of Debt Factoring?
- Improved cash flow - release money tied up in unpaid invoices and boost your cashflow
- Flexibility - your funding line increases at the same rate as your turnover meaning that you don’t need to renegotiate terms
- Save time - relieve your business of the burden of credit control and concentrate on your core business
- Bargaining power - Debt Factoring can help you to negotiate better terms with your suppliers
- Faster growth - grow your business at a much faster rate due to the flexible funding line
