A new concept in financial services, A new concept in financial services, an innovative approach to funding. an innovative approach to funding. In North America, the small business sector is an integral part of the economy and as it grows, so does its need for reliable sources of financing. From small growth-oriented businesses to more established medium-sized companies, every business owner eventually faces the reality that additional working capital is required. Often, this working capital is needed because so much money is tied up in accounts receivable.
So the quest for financing begins. Obtaining funding from banks and other traditional sources can be a long and arduous process, often leading to frustration and disappointment. Consequently, business owners have discovered another option; Factoring, a highly effective alternative to traditional lending. By selling credit-worthy invoices to a Factor, businesses acquire additional amounts of immediate working capital and, in exchange, the Factor receives fees for funding the transaction.
In 2007, Factoring volume in North America accounted for some $150 billion, while worldwide transactions were in excess of $2 trillion.*

But today, there is something new – Liquid Capital’s Franchised Business, an exciting opportunity to create and build a self-directed financial services enterprise.
