1 day1 hr confidence:   factures achetées (factoring)
Explanation: factures achetées
buying paper = achat de factures
factoring = affacturage ou achat de factures
Advanced technology makes factoring and discounting easier as invoices, documentation and payments can be transferred electronically.
They're also a substitute for more traditional business financing lines, or supplement them. By selling invoices businesses can avoid using homes or other property as collateral for overdrafts and expensive borrowing avenues like personal loans.
For many businesses it means the end of credit departments hounding bad payers and improves accounting systems as electronically accessed reference records are held with finance providers.
Factoring and discounting gives quick settlements, taking peaks and troughs from income and expenditure flows. However, there are significant differences between factoring and discounting: enterprises need to select what best suits them.
First, factoring. Factoring companies pay businesses between 80 and 90 per cent of invoice face value. They call it "buying paper" and it's their responsibility to get 100 per cent from their client's customer.
When factoring companies get paid, they deposit the outstanding amount - 20 or 10 per cent - less their fees of between 1.5 and 3 per cent for their client.
There's one snag. If businesses' customers don't pay factoring groups, businesses must repay what's been paid out on invoices within 90 days from the end of the month in which invoices are dated.
When things go wrong businesses are in recourse loans territory, operating on a 90 days basis. There are substantial credit checks on everyone involved, but things can still go wrong.
Businesses shouldn't believe factoring and discounting absolves them from maintaining stringent credit checks on customers.
Turning to discounting, larger companies more commonly use this method because they maintain their own credit checking, recording and debt collections departments.
Discounters pay customers about 80 per cent of invoice face value, but don't collect from their clients' debtors. When customers are paid the 80 per cent is repaid plus a fee around 2 per cent as interest. It is still a recourse loan, but isn't secured by "bought paper" like an invoice.
