Export-Import
Trade Finance Through Datamax Marketing Systems, Inc.
Export-Import Trade Finance can
present considerable challenges to America's small and mid-size business
owners. Typical export-import transactions may include requirements
for letters of credit, purchase order finance, international credit
insurance, and international factoring among others. These can often
present such difficulties that business owners simply ignore
opportunities that can lead to thousands or even millions of dollars in
revenue.
International Factoring
International factoring
is a fast growing method of finance that is taking the place of many
more typical letter of credit transactions. One of the benefits of
international factoring transactions is the speed with which they can be
put together.....generally within 48 hours. A typical international
factoring transaction includes four parts. First:
• The exporter signs a
factoring contract with an export factor in its own country. Under the
terms of the agreement, the exporter assigns all export receivables to
the export factor. The export factor is responsible to the exporter for
all aspects of normal factoring service.
• The export factor selects
an international factor as correspondent to act as import factor in the
country to which the exports are going. The receivables are then
reassigned by the export factor to the import factor.
• The import factor will
establish credit lines for each of the importers. The credit lines will
be for a specific amount and terms of sales. The export factor confirms
the details of the credit lines to the exporter.
• After the exporter ships
the goods and sends an invoice to the importer, the import factor
handles the collection of the receivable and the prompt payment of the
proceeds to the exporter's account at the export factor.
