The Factoring Receivables Agreement is essential for businesses seeking to optimize their working capital management through the sale of their accounts receivable. This document, governed by Swiss law, establishes a structured framework for ongoing receivables purchases, typically used by businesses requiring immediate liquidity or seeking to outsource their receivables management. The agreement comprehensively addresses assignment mechanics, purchase price calculations, operational procedures, and risk allocation between parties. It must comply with Swiss legal requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations' provisions on assignment of claims and, where applicable, Swiss banking regulations. The document is particularly valuable for businesses with regular invoice-based sales seeking efficient working capital solutions without traditional bank lending.
