FAQ

When a company factors receivables it means that they sell them to another party. If the transaction is without recourse that means the buyer takes on all the risk of credit losses. The seller of the accounts receivable does not bear any risk after the sale is complete.
Factoring without recourse means that the risk of accounts receivable being uncollectible transfers from the buyer to the seller. Basically, if an accounts receivable cannot be collected, the seller does not have to reimburse the buyer like they would if the factoring was “with recourse”.
