Invoice Discounting

Businesses can use invoice discounting to gain immediate access to funds held in outstanding invoices as well as to tap into the value of their sales ledger. It’s simple: when you invoice a customer or client, the lender pays you a percentage of the amount, increasing your cash flow.

Invoice discounting is also referred to as a series of short-term business loans secured by invoices. In other words, the lender knows you owe them money and is willing to lend you the majority of it before your customer pays you.

Small-to-medium-sized businesses’ cash flow may be stressed while waiting for clients to pay invoices. This problem can be solved by utilising invoice discounting.

As a result, the RBI has launched a number of schemes to assist SMEs in obtaining bank financing.
