Course Description
Factoring can be a valuable financing tool for smaller, growing businesses. In the Invoice Factoring Essentials course, we discuss when this tool should be used, how to select a factor, the terms and conditions that it imposes, the factoring process, and the differences between recourse and non-recourse factoring. We also look at factoring from the viewpoint of the factor, noting how it makes money, controls its risk, and deals with potential fraud situations.
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Identify the types of businesses that can profit from the use of factoring.
