7 Park Avenue Financial: “Canadian Business Financing with the intelligent use of experience”



 

 

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE CASH FLOW FINANCING

 

 

A strange question: Can an AR Financing strategy help increase your profitability?

 

Top experts indicate a strong case can be made for that statement, so receivable invoice financing has suddenly caught our client’s interest. No surprise there!

 

AR financing companies empower businesses to unlock the value of their unpaid invoices, providing vital working capital when it's needed most. 

 

 

Whether we like it or not, business history tends to repeat itself just like regular history. So unless the Canadian business owner and financial manager decide to change how they run and finance their business, they are somewhat doomed to soldier on under the same circumstances.

 

That is why understanding the importance of inventory and accounts receivable turnover is critical to business success - it is the proper balance sheet financing.

 

A/R finance firms are changing the way businesses access cash flow. As specialized lenders, these firms become a lifeline for every business's cash flow, given the investment companies have to make when they sell on credit and carry accounts receivables. Let the 7 Park Avenue Financial team show you  A/R financing solutions that meet your business needs.

 

 

Bank Financing Versus Non-Bank AR Financing Companies: Commercial Receivable Finance

 

 

The differences become quite clear when we benchmark traditional bank finance against receivable financing.

 

For banks and business-oriented credit unions, full repayment ability and secondary collateral (often your personal guarantee) become the focus. The banks focus on you as the owner, business equity, collateral, and historical cash flow is…… supreme.

 

 

Naturally, we’re the first to admit that securing bank financing does have significant advantages—they include the lowest possible cost of funds, your ability to deal very locally with your banker, etc. Our point is simply that there are alternatives that can still assist you in generating sales and profits.

 

 

Accounts receivable (AR) financing allows businesses to sell their outstanding invoices to a finance company to obtain immediate capital.

 

This method is particularly effective for small and medium-sized enterprises to maintain cash flow and cover operational expenses by leveraging their receivables without creating debt.

 

Accounts receivable financing companies specialize in improving businesses' cash flow by managing outstanding invoices and providing quick funding with competitive rates and flexible contracts.

 

 

Accounts receivable financing from a bank allows your firm to ‘assign’ its outstanding receivables to a bank as part of a line of credit—unlike factoring/receivable finance, where the paperwork specifies the ongoing sale of cash-flowing receivables.

 

ASSET TURNOVER IS THE KEY TO PROFIT

 

Every business owner knows you can increase profits by lowering costs and increasing sales.

 

But what they don’t often address is their ability to turn over assets, in our case today, accounts receivable (AR) and invoice factoring solutions. That continual turnover allows you to generate more sales and address the opportunity cost of doing something with your assets in the short term for day-to-day funding needs.

 

 

INVOICE FINANCE / ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCING ACCELERATES CASH FLOW

 

 

Naturally, invoice financing is just one method or choice a business owner has when considering accelerating sales and profit through proper financing.

 

An accounts receivable financing agreement is a financial solution where businesses sell their outstanding invoices to a finance company to obtain immediate capital, thus accelerating cash flow.

 

Our point is that invoice financing accelerates cash flow, a key driver of profits and the ability to sustain daily operations.

 

Ultimately, ‘quick financing’ allows the business owner and entrepreneur to address cash and revenue goals.

 

 

And don’t forget that you can take advantage of this method of financing in more ways than one - they include taking supplier discounts, taking on larger orders and contracts, and purchasing more efficiently based on your ability to pay suppliers and vendors better.

 

Accounts receivable loans allow companies to borrow against their outstanding invoices, providing a flexible alternative for SMEs to access cash quickly.

 

That is one of the main advantages of an accounts receivable financing program. Additionally, understanding the structure and terms of a financing arrangement, including fees and advance rates, is crucial when evaluating this funding option.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

  • Invoice factoring forms the cornerstone of AR financing, allowing businesses to sell their unpaid invoices at a discount.

  • Working capital solutions: These firms help companies bridge cash flow gaps and maintain operational stability.

  • Credit risk assessment is crucial for AR financing companies to evaluate the business's and its customers' creditworthiness.

  • Cash flow optimization techniques enable businesses to maximize their available funds and reduce financial strain.

  • Accounts receivable management strategies improve collection processes and enhance overall financial health.

 
CONCLUSION

 

 

So, our bottom line today? Asset turnover can affect profitability. Receivables finance enhances asset turnover by providing businesses with cash flow solutions through the financing of unpaid invoices.

 

Alternatively, working capital management works when it comes to profits. (And don’t forget to manage those long-term assets, too!) This makes you more effective as a company!

Is AR financing more accessible than traditional bank loans?

How does AR financing differ from a line of credit?

AR financing provides funds based on specific invoices, while a line of credit offers a set borrowing limit you can draw from as needed. Unlike fixed credit lines, AR financing is typically easier to obtain and scales with your sales.
