Lets explore how can Factoring help a business grow and plug gaps in cashflow?
Firstly lets talk about how factoring works and what it does. Factoring is a type of business finance that releases cash from unpaid customer invoices.
So if you trade B2B and give your customers credit (eg 30 days payment terms), then you will be owed money from your customers.
What factoring does is give you quick access to the money that is tied up in your trade debtors. Typically you could release up to 90% of your outstanding trade debtor balance, helping ease cash flow pressures.
