What is construction invoice finance?
Lengthy payment terms are inherent to the construction industry's complex nature, particularly in large commercial projects.
Construction invoice finance, also known as construction factoring, is a smart financial solution designed to mitigate common challenges faced in this sector.
With this type of invoice finance, construction companies can pay a processing fee to access the total value of their invoice(s) the next working day.
