Frequently asked questions
How much would we pay for factoring?
————Question: Isnۥt factoring too expensive?
————Answer:
We can answer YES and NO at the same time.
Factoring transactions and management of receivables bring higher costs, on the other hand can bring higher benefits and savings for majority of companies.
YES answer
can be applied for a company in a very good financial situation with “unlimited” access to bank financing where management of receivables is not of concern. Such company would pay us interest for provided money as well as fee for management of receivables. Total costs for financing through factoring in this case might be higher in comparison to bank financing.
NO answer
can be applied for all companies that would fully use services and advantages of factoring: that means need to get financing in a fast and simple way to be able to further develop their businesses and at the same time need to solve problems in the area of management and collection of receivables. Factoring is not expensive for such companies; it brings significantly more benefits in comparison to total costs paid.
Price for money lending (interest) is fully comparable with bank overdraft financing, but CSOB Factoring is able to provide more financing facilities than a bank which in fact enables clients to grow faster, increase their turnover or realize projects bringing higher profits. Stronger liquidity helps clients to pay their payables to suppliers faster; this creates the possibility to reach bonuses, usually in higher amounts than factoring costs. In case you do not use the whole amount of financing, there is no stand-by fee with CSOB Factoring; further we charge no fee for contract documents.
Cost connected with management of receivables is fully compensated by improved payment morality (lower need of external financing – savings on interests) and the risk of non-payment is minimal.
