Debt collection under the factoring contract
A factoring contract is becoming an increasingly popular tool for entrepreneurs who seek to improve their liquidity and protect themselves from non-payment by debtors. However, as in any agreement, conflict situations related to debt collection may arise in it.
Below we will consider in detail the nuances of debt collection under a factoring agreement that your business may face. Having read this information, you will be able to better prepare for such problems and take measures to effectively solve them.
What is a factoring agreement?
Factoring is a financial agreement under which a company (factor) buys its receivables from a seller (supplier) for a certain fee. This allows the seller to receive cash immediately without waiting for payment from their customers (buyers).
Factoring can be beneficial for both parties:
- For the seller: he gets quick access to funds, improves his liquidity and reduces the risks associated with non-payment.
- For the factor: he earns commission income and can diversify his asset portfolio.
Peculiarities of debt collection under a factoring contract: the main difficulties
Debt collection under a factoring contract has a number of features that distinguish it from other types of debt collection:
- Parties to the contract: the debt will be collected by the factor, not the seller who concluded the factoring contract.
- Grounds for collection: the factor has the right to demand payment from the debtor on the basis of the factoring contract and primary documents confirming the delivery of goods/services and their value.
- Collection measures: A factor can use all legal methods of debt collection like any other creditor.
However, in addition to these features, factoring can bring certain difficulties in debt collection:
- Insolvency of the debtor: If the debtor turns out to be insolvent, the factor can lose a significant part of its funds.
- Dispute by the debtor of the debt: the debtor can dispute the very fact of the debt, its amount or the grounds for its collection.
- Complex legal procedures: the process of debt collection can require significant time and financial costs, as well as in-depth knowledge of the law.
Methods of debt collection under a factoring contract with the help of a lawyer
A lawyer with experience in factoring can help you effectively collect a debt from a debtor using the following methods:
- Pre-trial settlement: a lawyer will negotiate with the debtor for the purpose of voluntary repayment of the debt.
- Foreclosure: If a pre-trial settlement is not possible, the attorney will file a lawsuit and represent your interests in the lawsuit.
- Enforcement: A lawyer can take steps to enforce an action, such as seizing the debtor’s property.
- Execution of the court decision: after receiving the court decision, the lawyer will help you in its execution, that is, in collecting the debt from the debtor.
Debt collection under a factoring agreement can be a complex and time-consuming process that requires knowledge of the law, experience in this field and understanding of the nuances of factoring agreements. Solving such problems on your own can lead to loss of time, money, and sometimes the debts themselves.

Are you in Kyiv?
Is it possible to go through the bankruptcy procedure if the debt is less than 180,000 UAH?
Bankruptcy can be filed regardless of the amount of debt — there are no minimum limits set by law. However, if the amount of debt is less than UAH 180,000, it is usually more advisable to agree on debt restructuring, as bankruptcy may be economically unprofitable.

Yes, we work remotely throughout Ukraine and even with clients abroad! We have many clients from Lviv, Odessa, Dnipro, Kharkiv, Cherkasy and other settlements.
Communication is carried out in any way convenient for you.
