Factoring (disambiguation)

Factoring         
Factoring is the discounting of a foreign account receivable that does not involve a draft. The exporter transfers title to its foreign accounts receivable to a factoring house for cash at a discount from the face value. Factoring is often done without recourse to the exporter.

The factor assumes financial ability of the customer to pay and handles collections on the receivables. See: Factoring House
