At the conclusion of the agreement with the right of recourse the supplier continues to bear credit risks under the debt requirements sold by them the factoring company. Last can take advantage of the recourse right and sell back to supplier any outstanding debt requirement in case the client refuses payment (or if it has appeared insolvent). The supplier goes on such condition in the event that considers, that at it the doubtful debtors can not appear, that it well knows the clients, carefully enough has estimated their credit status, has developed an own effective system from credit is brave and consequently does not consider necessary to pay services for insurance upon occurrence of the doubtful contracts.
The guaranteed and duly inflow of money resources can be provided only at the agreement without the right of recourse. It is necessary to remember, that if the debt requirement will be recognized void (for example, and case if the supplier has shipped to the client the goods, not ordered by last) the factoring company receives the right of recourse to the supplier all the same
The basic advantage of variant with the advance payment is that the payment is carried out as fixed percent from the sum of these requirements, that provides to the supplier reception of the large means at increase with it of volumes of the sales (as against the bank credit, which size is limited to the sum of actives acting as maintenance). It also has the right at any time to refuse the advance payment. In variant without the advance payment the sum of the debt requirements (behind a minus of costs) is listed to the supplier for the certain date or after the expiration of the certain time.
Variants of Service Depending on the various requirements of the supplier and the factoring company a number of internal factoring variants of the agreements is developed. The agreement on complete service (notification non-recourse factoring "old-line factoring") consists usually at constant and enough long contacts between the participants and at conformity of parameters of activity of the supplier to a number of the requirements. For example, the English firm “Barkley Commercial Services” puts forward at the conclusion of the agreement about complete service the following conditions: the annual planned revolution of the supplier should be not lower 200 thousand ponds. The realization of production should be carried out on usual conditions, the share of one debtor in a total sum of debts should not exceed 25-40 %, and each requirement should be exposed a minimum of 100 ponds.
The crediting provided by such agreement, is similar to crediting on the basis of the agreement on complete service. The payment of the rest is made only after repayment of duties by the clients. If the supplier is interested only in part crediting from the factoring company, between them the open or confidential agreement on invoices (invoice discounting, confidential invoice factoring) can be made. However, such agreement is risky enough for the factoring company compelled to put forward the most rigid requirement to the supplier in this case, and its conclusion is meaningful only on condition that the last financial position has been strongly enough.
Many suppliers in process of the growth and consolidation of a financial position pass from complete service to the invoices in the factoring company. There is also opposite tendency - transition from the account to complete service in cases, when the suppliers meet difficulties in management of the credit.
Additional Services Alongside with these basic services factoring can render to the clients of a various additional services: - constant and single consultation on organization perfection of their accounts with the suppliers and buyers, increase efficiency of financial resources usage, improvement of a financial condition and other economic questions; - legal services (rendering assistance in preparation of business papers and documents on financial questions); - conducting on behalf of the clients of the shipped goods account, debts with the purpose of the given account usage for drawing up of the accounting reports and estimation of the usual practice of payment mutual relation.
