Some common variations include: 1. Recourse Factoring Agreement: In this type of agreement, the Assignor remains liable for the collection of accounts receivable, even if the Assignee is unable to collect the payments from the customers. The Assignor agrees to repurchase any uncollectible accounts or compensate the Assignee for the loss. 2.

However, if any invoices remain unpaid after a specific period (maturity date), the Assignee will receive ownership of these overdue accounts. 5. Invoice Factoring Agreement: This type of agreement allows the Assignor to sell individual invoices selectively to the Assignee, rather than the entire accounts receivable portfolio. It provides greater flexibility and allows businesses to address their immediate cash flow needs by financing specific invoices. 6.
