Export Factoring is one of the fastest and easiest ways to secure working capital if you want to grow your exports business without going through the hassle of securing a loan from a bank. An export factoring solution is generally provided by factoring companies that specialize in foreign trade. Certain other features like foreign currency disbursements and verifying buyers in specific geographies are also features that are unique to an export factoring. At its core, export factoring solutions are foreign bills payable that are sold to an export factor, who makes a partial payment for purchasing the export invoice and makes the remaining payment at the due date, after deducting the necessary fees. Exporters can then utilise these funds at any stage of the business lifecycle, to pay for inventory, raw materials, employees, or any other short-term needs.
Exporting goods from India can get fairly complicated. the issue is further compounded when companies exporters are dealeing with unknown or unverified importers in a foreign country. Growing export businesses can offload this risk of non-payment from an unknown buyer to an export factoring firm by simply selling its export trade receivables, receive payment in the short-term and use the cash to cater to another export order.

This means the company should; 1. Have the capabilities to work with foreign buyers without any issues concerning foreign bills collections 2.
