What is Factoring?
Factoring is when a business transfers their accounts receivable from sales of goods or services to a factoring company, which then provides guarantees, collections, and financing services.
Cash flow is a critical component that supports uninterrupted business operations, particularly for SMEs. Factoring helps firms regulate their cash flow, thereby aiding in the increase of working capital.
Widely adopted in advanced countries as a financing technique, this approach was legally established in Turkey after the 1983 Decree Law on Money Lending was amended in 1994. In Turkey, domestic transactions constitute nearly three-quarters of factoring operations, with the remainder being export factoring.

How Factoring is Calculated
Factoring calculations are made based on the total invoice amount. These calculations can fluctuate depending on the specific type of factoring service provided.
Is Factoring an Expensive Financing Option?
The cost associated with factoring depends upon the nature of the transaction and the prevailing market conditions.
How Does Factoring Differ from Traditional Loans?
Most notably, factoring transactions only impact the assets section of balance sheets, while bank loans are recorded as financial liabilities.
What Advantages Does Factoring Offer?
Converting your sales receivables into cash through factoring will boost the assets on your balance sheet, which means that there will be a reduction in the liabilities section, alleviating the financial pressure associated with these sales.
Factoring financing is distinct from traditional loans. Consequently, it does not entail a liability entry on your balance sheet.
