FAQ

Financing, securing and optimising receivables

Optimisation & Performance

1. How can you optimise an existing factoring programme?

A programme may operate effectively without fully exploiting its potential.
Contract audits, gap analysis, margin optimisation, and the activation of non-assigned or under-financed debtors often make it possible to unlock additional funding without changing partner.

At Fibus, we review the entire structure to transform an operational programme into a true performance lever.

2. How can you increase your financing without changing your factor?

In many cases, growth does not require changing factor, but rather:

  • Improved management of credit limits
  • More granular qualification of receivables balances
  • More precise monitoring of assignments
  • Activation of underutilised facilities

The key objective is to fully leverage the existing financing architecture.

3. How can you identify untapped financing opportunities?

Gaps between eligible, financed and insured receivables often reveal significant headroom for improvement.
A consolidated view of data enables the rapid identification of these underutilised areas and the activation of readily available cash.

4. Does factoring actually improve working capital performance?

Yes.
When properly structured, factoring reduces DSO, secures cash flows and enhances financial visibility.
In certain contexts, it can also contribute to optimising financial ratios and facilitating covenant management.

Credit Insurance: Safeguard & Strategic Leverage

5. Does credit insurance genuinely protect against payment delays and defaults?

Yes.
Credit insurance is primarily a tool for protecting receivables against non-payment and buyer defaults.
It enables you to:

  • Compensate for losses arising from payment defaults
  • Secure payment terms
  • Benefit from continuous creditworthiness monitoring
  • Support commercial decisions with up-to-date risk analysis

At Fibus, we fully master this traditional aspect: policy structuring, negotiation, claims management, and support for Credit Management teams.

6. How does credit insurance enhance financing capacity?

Beyond protection, well-calibrated guarantees can increase the financable base for factors and secure credit lines over the long term.

Our approach is to align risk management with financial performance.

7. Should guarantees be adapted to optimise factoring lines?

Yes.
Poorly calibrated or outdated credit limits can artificially constrain available financing.
Active management of guarantees is a direct lever for optimisation.

Digital & Operational Management

8. Why should you digitalise the oversight of your factoring programme?

Manual management generates errors, delays and lack of visibility.
Digitalisation enables you to:

  • Automate workflows
  • Analyse discrepancies in real time
  • Identify unutilised financing
  • Significantly reduce processing time

9. Can a digital solution truly enhance financing capacity?

Yes.
By improving data quality, visibility over receivables, and guarantee management, a digital management tool can increase available financing and sustainably optimise line performance.

10. Does ARI replace an ERP system?

No.
ARI integrates with your ERP and partners (factors, insurers) to structure, secure and optimise financing flows.
It complements the accounting system by providing a consolidated financial view.

Structuring & Complex Operations

11. Can factoring be effectively implemented in international groups?

Yes, provided it is properly structured.
Multi-country, multi-currency, and multi-entity programmes: a well-designed architecture allows for harmonised practices and optimised overall performance.

12. How should a programme be structured in an LBO context?

In a Private Equity context, factoring can:

  • Enhance cash generation
  • Secure short-term debt
  • Support rapid growth or carve-outs

Rigorous structuring is essential to align financing, covenants and investment strategy.

13. Why engage a specialised advisory firm instead of approaching a factor or insurer directly?

An independent advisory firm:

  • Objectively compares market solutions
  • Negotiates terms
  • Structures complex programmes
  • Optimises arrangements over the long term

Our role does not stop at implementation: we manage and monitor performance.

14. What sets Fibus apart?

Fibus brings together three complementary areas of expertise:

  • Factoring brokerage
  • Credit insurance brokerage
  • Digital financing management

This integrated approach enables the full activation of receivables levers: protection, financing, and continuous optimisation within a single, cohesive model.
