What is Accounts Receivable Factoring and how does it work?
Accounts receivable factoring, often referred to simply as factoring, is a financial transaction where a business sells its accounts receivable (unpaid invoices) to a third-party financial institution, known as a factor. The factor then advances a certain percentage of the total invoice value to the business upfront, providing immediate cash flow.
The factor assumes responsibility for collecting payments from the customers who owe the invoices.
