Export Factoring - How To Use Trade Finance
To Finance Your International Sales
Submitted By: Marco Terry .Selling your goods internationally
can be extremely rewarding and challenging at the same time. When
you start exporting goods, you truly open your company to a world
of possibilities, including the possibility of big financial rewards.
At the same time, you expose yourself to some of the challenges
of international commerce.Many international transactions are
settled using bank or corporate letters of credit, which means
you can rest assured that you will be paid on time. However,
many of your clients will insist that you
give them payment terms. This means you may need to wait 30, 60
or even 90 days before you get paid. And if your company is growing,
waiting to get paid can be very tough.Going to the bank for a
business loan may or may not work. Most banks only give business
loans to businesses that have a great past history. But this is
of little use to businesses that have a short history but a bright
future.A better option is to consider factoring your invoices,
which eliminates the 30 day wait that it takes to get paid. Export
factoring (or international factoring as it is also known),
can be a very useful tool for new and growing
businesses.Factoring is a form of financing, where a factoring
company advances you a substantial portion on your invoices. The
factoring company waits to get paid, while you get immediate use
of the funds. This eliminates the cash flow issues that happen
when you extend terms.Export factoring is a factoring specialty.
Actually, very few factoring companies offer international export
factoring,
so when talking to companies be sure to
be specific and ask if they offer this type of factoring.Many
factoring companies also offer purchase order financing. This
factoring product extension provides you with financing to fulfill
purchase orders. Purchase order financing gives you the necessary
funding to pay your suppliers, using the purchase order as collateral.If
your company is growing and selling goods offshore, be sure to
look into factoring and purchase order funding as valuable financing
tools to help you grow.About the Author:We are trade financing
