If your
company is contemplating expanding, currently expanding or
receiving new or larger orders than it has received in the past
and lacks sufficient capital to complete the new orders, that is
where we can assist. This lack of capital can be a result of the
company having exhausted its line of credit, lacks assets
sufficient for conventional lenders, or is unable to obtain
conventional financing, and does not want to give up ownership
for financing, all of which will cause a cash flow problem.
In
North America, a Purchase Order (P.O.) is a legal agreement
signed by a buyer requesting a seller to provide goods or
services. Purchase Orders normally list the amount of goods or
services required and the terms and conditions of delivery and
payment.
Major
domestic buyers will normally issue a P.O. requiring extended
payment terms such as Net 30 to 60 days. Domestic and Overseas
suppliers will usually ask for COD or sight draft Letter of
Credit terms or in exceptional circumstances a short pay period.
For a middleman, this difference in terms of purchase and of
sale can be a problem.
Purchase Order Financing can be a solution to this cash flow
dilemma. Purchase Order Financing is a short-term funding
technique used to finance the purchase or manufacture of goods
that have been presold to a creditworthy customer. Lenders that
offer this specialized form of financing can assist in the
purchase of product inventory by using the inventory and
confirmed purchase orders as collateral.
Importers, Exporters, Distributors, Manufacturers are all
candidates for Purchase Order Financing. Funds may be used for
issuing Letters of Credit, cash payment to suppliers for
finished goods, raw materials or direct labor. Purchase Order
Funding is a risky form of financing and therefore costs more
than traditional financing. It requires extensive due diligence,
and lenders are highly selective.
