The History of Factoring

The History Of Factoring

The need for financing to facilitate commerce created factoring.  First found in the Mesopotamian culture, the laws of factoring are lined out the Code of Hammurabi.  Factoring was instrumental to international commerce in England in the 1400’s and was essential to financing the growing North American colonies.  Even the famous trip the pilgrims took on the Mayflower was paid for by factoring.

By the twentieth century factoring in the United States was instrumental to providing working capital to the booming textile industry.  As long as businesses have a need for additional working capital, entrepreneurs will turn to invoice factoring to finance their success.
