Sale of a firms accounts receivable to a financial institution known as a factor.

One of the ways it can mitigate this danger is by "factoring" them.Special companies exist (factors) which will pay the company a high proportion of the amount it is owed, in return for the right to collect the debts from the debtors. The company gets a high percentage of the amount it is owed direct from the factor. The factors chase the money and keep the difference.
