Factoring have mutual benefits for both the Buyer and the Seller

For the buyer:

• Injection of WC to finance expansion.

• Additional WC finance aside to conventional bank.

• Suppliers can be paid promptly and so the buyer can doubly benefit from reducing costs by taking advantage of prompt payment discounts and improving his credit standing with suppliers.

• No loss of equity - the seller should not need to seek additional capital from outside shareholders and thereby lose some control of the company.

• No formal funding limit - the funding normally keeps pace with growth.

• It allows buyers a period of free credit to use the goods in the production of their own products and then to sell the goods to their own customers.

• Their own lines of bank credit are not used to fund the credit period.

• It is also administratively simpler and cheaper than the letter of credit.

• Accelerate WC = Accelerate company’s T/O = more profits.
