Factoring is a debtor finance medium where a business sells its invoices or accounts receivables to a third party, called a factor, at a discount. It is an essential tool for providing working capital to businesses that might have cash flow issues due to slow-paying customers or longer sales cycles. The end-users of factoring services are diverse, including small businesses struggling with cash flow gaps due to delayed payments from customers, seasonal businesses requiring funding during peak periods, and fast-growing companies in need of working capital for business expansion.

Market players are expected to keep up with the changing regulations while ensuring the provision of quality services to expand the market development. They are also leveraging advanced data analytics tools to improve risk assessment and decision-making processes, allowing factors to gain a competitive edge.
