Invoice Finance is suitable for companies in the production, retail and service sectors with a lot of outstanding receivables and long receivable payment periods. For growing companies that require a lot of investment, Invoice Finance is an effective means of increasing liquidity. Companies under a lot of competitive pressure can extend the payment periods for their customers.

The financing facility grows in concert with revenue.
 
The additional liquidity makes it possible to service accounts payable more quickly and thus improve your own equity ratio and bank rating.
 
The rapid availability of the invoice amounts makes it possible to negotiate discounts and rebates. These savings alone can offset the Invoice Finance fee.
 
The Invoice Finance company can take on receivables management. This means less work for the Invoice Finance customer.

Once they have been sold, receivables are no longer included on the balance sheet. The liquidity obtained as a result of the sale of the receivables can be used to reduce liabilities to suppliers, for example. This reduces both assets and liabilities on the balance sheet (balance sheet contraction) and increases the equity ratio.

Each customer receives a note on its invoice informing it of the new bank details to which invoice amounts due are to be transferred in future.
