INFORMATION ON ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCING SOLUTIONS IN CANADA



Thousands of Canadian business owners and financial managers perceive
AR Accounts Receivable Finance as a solid strategy for financing their firms. Let's examine 5 key advantages of this method of working capital finance. But first let’s take a quick step back and ensure we understand the product and the mechanics of this type of finance service.

The heart of the AR finance strategy is of course your receivables. This financing differs significantly from a bank loan or more commonly the Canadian chartered bank line of credit. What is that main difference? Simply that under a bank facility the financing is based on your firm’s credit worthiness, with the receivables being assigned to the bank as collateral.

The difference then? It's simple and basic. AR financing is not a loan to your company per se, instead its the purchase of your receivables, generally on an ongoing basis , This sale of ar, via our business factor funding arrangement enhances your cash flow and working capital .. Immediately!

One of the main points of confusion that we find continually exists around this method of financing is the pricing. While the bank facility charges your firm an annual interest rate (plus some miscellaneous fees here and there!) invoice finance is the sale of your A/R, at a discount, allowing you to receive funds and replace A/R on your balance sheet with cash, immediately as you make sales.

In general, certainly more often than not, invoice receivable finance in on a recourse basis, just as if you had a bank facility in place. Simply speaking, you're responsible for any credit losses. Purchase of business credit insurance can eliminate bad debt risk, especially if you have foreign or concentrated receivables.

Finally let’s get on to those advantages we spoke of. Here are just five of them, and if you are having challenges in accessing bank financing these advantages should have significant appeal to your firm.

First of all, it’s a classic short term funding strategy without additional collateral requirements or major emphasis on guarantees of the owners of the company.

The second advantage is timing, and we're firm believers that timing is everything in business. The hard reality is that invoice financing provides you with cash flow on the same day as you generate sales. That shortens your overall credit extension cycle by... you guess it, 100%.

Our third advantage of AR Accounts receivable finance is simply flexibility. No debt goes on your balance sheet, you’re just monetizing assets and funds can be used for any general corporate purpose.

Our 4th advantage is somewhat of a double edged sword. Traditional AR finance in Canada has the busines factor funding your receivables as an extension of your credit department. We would point out that under the right circumstances your firm can acquire a confidential AR Finance facility which allows you to do all the billing and collecting yourself. Bottom line, it’s your call.

Finally, if your firm as a lot of U.S. or foreign receivables invoice finance is a solid way to address this business challenge. Even the exchange rate is taken care of in this situation.
