Invoice Discounting
Invoice discounting is a system whereby you borrow money based on any invoices you have issued which have not yet been settled, helping to improve cash flow by removing the time spent waiting for customers to pay.
With invoice discounting, a third party is temporarily paying you what your debtors owe you. When you bill your customers, you forward a copy of the invoice to your invoice lender who will then pay you a percentage of the money owed.
Your customer then pays their invoice as usual, however, the money is paid into a trustee bank account which is set up by the invoice discounter. The remaining money is then forwarded to you, minus any interest and fees for the service.

Invoice Factoring
Just as with invoice discounting, invoice factoring allows you to borrow cash against the value of your debtor ledger – however factoring offers an additional service in that the factoring company will also take responsibility for billing your customers and collecting payments.
As with invoice discounting, using a factoring service will improve your company’s cash flow, but in addition, it will also free up time spent on invoicing and unpaid invoices and provide more of a definite budget to work to.

Asset Finance
Asset financing allows you to borrow money against your assets in order to fund the purchase of equipment for your business and usually takes the form of leasing or hire purchase.
In a leasing arrangement, the lending company purchases the assets on behalf of the lender and charges them a regular ‘rental’, including interest over a fixed period. At the end of the fixed period, ownership of the asset is then transferred to the borrower.
Hire purchasing allows borrowers to spread the cost of large purchases in a similar way: after an initial deposit, regular amounts are paid to the lender for a fixed period. At the end of the agreed period, the borrower can usually pay a final sum to purchase full ownership of the asset, extend the lease, or return the asset.
