Many businesses looking into factoring encounter the decision of what type of factoring, recourse vs non-recourse factoring, to choose. They are not sure what the difference is and what route to take. So what are the advantages and disadvantages of factoring receivables non-recourse? And is factoring receivables without recourse a good option for you and your business?
There is one fundamental difference between recourse and non-recourse factoring. In recourse factoring, the business takes on this risk. If the factoring company is unable to collect the amount owed on the invoice, the business that sold the invoice to the factoring company is now entirely responsible for this debt. They must now attempt to collect the funds from the client themselves. The factoring company will help them no further, and the business’s financial stability is now in jeopardy.
When Recourse Invoice Factoring Makes Sense
If you sell to Walmart or the UD government, a recourse factoring agreement will probably meet your needs, and you might pay lower factor fees out to 90 days; however, dilution and returns are still your problems. And the factoring company will probably charge back your invoices in 90 days and you have lost the advantage of paying lower fees. Check the verbiage in your recourse agreement closely and see that it matches what you understand the factoring companies offer.
