Accounts Receivable Securitization (Factoring)

This is a service that converts accounts receivable to cash early and improves cash flow.

By selling accounts receivable (accounts receivable and bills receivable) to MUFG Finance and Leasing, early conversion to cash is possible. With the WITHOUT-RECOURSE method, assets can be compressed and the balance sheet can be slimmed down simultaneously with execution.
