Factoring Presentation

INTERNATIONAL FACTORING

• Once a transaction is complete, the Supplier sends an (enforceable) invoice to the Importer.
• This invoice will be assigned to the Export Factor, who purchases this and similar invoices within the parameters established with regard to the importer. 80-90% of the face value of these invoices is immediately refunded to the Supplier.
• The Export Factor often involves an Import Factor who backs the former with regard to suitable collection measures, and an appropriate credit evaluation of the Importer. The Import Factor also often backs the Export Factor in taking the credit risk on such importers.
• The Importer pays the Export Factor via the Import Factor.
