International invoice finance, also known as international factoring, is a financial service that enables businesses engaged in cross-border trade to optimize cash flow by converting their international accounts receivable into immediate working capital.

The factor then assumes responsibility for collecting customer payments in their local currency and jurisdiction, managing currency exchange and credit risks associated with international transactions.

International factoring helps businesses mitigate the challenges of extended payment terms and fluctuating exchange rates, facilitating smoother cash flow management and supporting global expansion efforts. It is a strategic tool for businesses looking to minimize financial risks and maximize liquidity while engaging in international trade.
