Letter of Credit (L/C) forfaiting allows an exporter to receive up–front payment for selling L/C–based receivables at a discount on a non–recourse basis.
Forfaiting is typically used to sell long-term, high-value export receivables, while factoring is commonly used to sell short-term, low-value domestic or international receivables.
Forfaiting is a mechanism where an exporter's rights to export receivables such as letters of credit or bills of exchange are purchased by a financial intermediary called a forfaiter without recourse to the exporter.
Domestic forfaiting means purchasing receivables arising from domestic transactions. Both the parties to a forfaiting agreement and the debtor operate in the same country. Otherwise, forfaiting is international.
Forfaiting example The exporter and forfaiter draft an agreement based on expected receivables, or invoice payments. The exporter and importer form a sales contract. The exporter delivers the goods to the importer. The importer's bank provides a payment guarantee.
Factoring deals with short-term receivables that fall due within a period of 90 days. In contrast, forfaiting focuses on medium to long-term accounts receivables.
