ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FACTORINGAccounts receivable management is at the core of a company’s success and vital to the daily operations of any business. Accounts receivable is the balance due from a debtor on a current account and their promise to pay. The accounts receivable of a business are traditionally due thirty to sixty days after invoicing. As a result, a company is constantly challenged to diligently manage accounts and leverage their cash flow. They must carry sufficient working capital in order to juggle payments by their customers along with their own overhead expenses, including payroll, rent and taxes, all of which are typically paid on a more frequent basis. Accounts receivable financing is the perfect method to eliminate and relieve the interim strain of balancing receivables and payables. For a company, particularly in high-growth or reorganization mode, often times faces the obstacle of having a limited availability to credit with their suppliers while striving to secure larger contracts and new customers. This creates a challenge to find an immediate solution for additional sources of funding, such as accounts receivable factoring, to increase working capital and fulfill the positive growth in demand by customers for goods and services. The short-term funding needed to facilitate expansion or meet seasonal cash flow needs is not readily available from a traditional lending source. For this reason, accounts receivable factoring and purchase order financing become lucrative tools in developing great strategies. Minimal paperwork is involved in comparison with a bank loan and most importantly; turn-around times are significantly faster, thus eliminating the lengthy and laborious re-application process. As a factoring company, Platinum possesses the capabilities to provide initial funding within 3-5 days. In today’s financial world, there exists a large and often, unanswered call to meet the capital needs of this generally overlooked segment of the business community. Companies who do not have access to traditional lending sources, such as banks, for example, must now search for alternative and creative financing solutions, such as factoring services. Unlike banks, factoring companies, like Platinum, are not concerned, in any way, with the credit or balance sheet of their client. Concern lies only within the creditworthiness of their client’s customers.
