Factoring

Factoring is a form of cash flow finance now being used over 25,000 companies, generating a combined turnover in excess of £19 billion, according to statistics released by the FDA. These figures are increasing quarter on quarter.

Selecting a factoring company should be straightforward but in reality it isn't and as we have very real concerns with the way that some factoring companies operate we have set out details of the pitfalls in the following pages so please click on the link to read our concerns about factoring

Invoice Discounting

Invoice discounting is currently being used by almost 14,000 companies generating combined turnovers of nearly £115 billion and it is this method of invoice finance that is experiencing the most growth at the moment. Our reservations about the activities of some invoice discounters are as valid as in factoring and we would be grateful if you could click on the link to see our areas of concern about invoice discounting
