Tradewind Finance Closes Export Factoring Facility for Consulting Firm in Hong Kong in Local Currency, HKD

Tradewind Finance, a leading international trade finance provider, is pleased to announce a HKD 3 million credit facility for a global consulting firm based in Hong Kong. Tradewind’s immediate funding empowers the asset-light firm to accelerate its growth while maintaining financial stability in the local currency HKD.

The Hong Kong-based company, with nearly a decade of advisory experience in organizational management and offices across the world, has built a strong global client base primarily in the financial sector. However, when expanding its business into new markets, the self-financed firm found that a shortage in working capital became the biggest challenge, preventing itself from seizing business opportunities in other sectors.

To overcome the financial challenge, the consulting firm collaborated with Tradewind for its 25-year proven track record of success and solid reputation in the trade finance industry. The flexible tailor-made financing solution, which includes a HKD 3 million credit facility and built-in credit insurance, enabled the company to free up cash flow tied in its accounts receivables, invest in new markets, and make timely payments for necessary expenses like payroll and rent. The solution helped the consulting firm maintain financial stability and explore new business without the fear of trade risks.

“The challenge for many service-based companies, especially those without fixed assets or collaterals, is securing traditional funding. But Tradewind’s export factoring solution is an ideal alternative. Instead of focusing on the supplier’s balance sheet, we mostly assess its customer’s creditworthiness. Additionally, we offer our financing service in multiple major currencies to meet our clients’ special requirements,” said Dickson Au, Regional CEO – Far East, at Tradewind Hong Kong.

应收账款融资和票据融资的区别?

应收账款融资和票据融资都是企业常用的融资方式,但它们在融资标的、操作流程和适用场景上存在一些显著区别: 1、融资标的不同 应收账款融资:以企业的应收账款为融资基础,企业将尚未收回的货款(即应收账款)转让或质押给银行或金融机构,从而获得融资。应收账款融资是基于买卖合同中未来应收的款项。 票据融资:主要以企业持有的商业票据(如商业承兑汇票或银行承兑汇票)为融资标的。企业将票据转让或贴现给银行以获取资金。票据融资是基于现有票据的信用。 2、融资方式不同: 应收账款融资:包括保理、应收账款质押贷款等形式。企业可以转让应收账款给保理公司(有追索权或无追索权),或者以应收账款作抵押向银行申请贷款。 票据融资:主要方式是票据贴现和票据质押。票据贴现是企业将未到期的票据转让给银行,并获得票据面值减去贴现利息后的资金;票据质押则是企业以票据作为抵押,向银行申请贷款。 3、适用条件不同: 应收账款融资:适用于持有大量应收账款、且客户信誉较高的企业,尤其在赊销、分期付款的情况下,可通过应收账款融资获得流动资金。 票据融资:适用于持有票据的企业,尤其是持有银行承兑汇票等信用较高的票据,能迅速通过贴现或质押获取短期资金。 4、融资风险和成本: 应收账款融资:融资风险较高,因为应收账款存在坏账的可能性,银行会对买方资信情况进行严格评估。融资成本取决于应收账款的质量及买方的信用状况。
