MarketplaceConfidential Factoring Factoring is expensive - but it works! Its true - Factoring is more expensive than traditional sources of bank financing. But like everything that command a higher price there are value added benefits in general. Factoring has many advantages such as value added compared to a traditional bank overdraft. Before going to ask others you 3 questions: 1) Do you have a growing company? 2) Is it your current working capital secured by real estate? 3) Is your overdraft insufficient for the needs of your business? Like most small and medium businesses, you probably answered yes to at least two of the questions above. Let \ 's examine why so many companies have found it useful to pay more for their bills by factoring .......... 1) Your overdraft is set With a bit of business development of your sales are growing and so is your working capital needs. Need for further action, additional staff, and customers treat you like a bank - and why not - after all, you do not load \ 'interests or to take their safety! You probably have a lot of money right now - and the more you expand the more money you are owed! But your overdraft limit. This is because it is usually guaranteed against a fixed asset - your property. The problem is that the more you develop, the more you'll regularly hit your overdraft limit - and receive calls from your bank manager, but as your business grows, it takes more cash to fund growth. 2) Factoring grows with you Factoring, on the other hand, develops directly in line with sales. Sales have more than you do, the more cash you grow. Simply: \ "Raise invoice \ "Send a copy to the element \ "Get up to 90% compared to the value of the invoice usually within 24 hours (The other 10% is returned when the customer pays) No more waiting for your customers to pay you .... and the beauty of factoring ....... there is no real estate collateral have been taken (in most cases) 3) Why Factoring is more expensive than bank overdrafts? Factoring companies are specialists in the invoice. They include risks associated with the bills and watching them closely, they can maximize the money they can make available to them. In most cases, they: \ "Undertake credit checks on your customers \ "Chase your customers for you (not with confidential factoring) \ "Provide credit insurance against your client in liquidation and bankruptcy. \ "(They also undertake their duty of care - for example to ensure that the goods have been delivered.) Consequently, there are additional costs in managing these risks - but the benefit to you is that you have access to more cash without the need to establish the safety of real estate. Thus, whereas factoring is more expensive it can provide additional cash needs of your business grow, which is not available through traditional overdraft, while giving you peace of mind that your personal property are not used to finance your business.
