Considering a personal loan for business use? Learn about the risks, implications and alternatives to using a personal loan for startups in Singapore.
Receivables discounting is when you use your accounts receivable as collateral to borrow money.
The loan amount usually ranges between 80% and 95% of the receivables value, which you will pay back with interest and fees to the lender upon maturity.
In receivables discounting, you are not selling your accounts receivable. You simply use them to collateralize a loan. Therefore, you still own the receivables and are responsible for collecting payment from customers.
