ArmInfo.ArmswissBank is one of the leading banks providing factoring services in the Armenian banking system, at the same time, is the only Bank appearing to be a member of Factors Chain International (FCI, International Factoring Association) since 2008. The development of international factoring in cooperation with FCI has always been one of the key priorities of the Bank.
This time, thanks to effective cooperation with TBC Bank, FCI and the EBRD, the Bank for the first time came up with a new factoring solution to finance one of its best clients Yerevan Chocolate Factory CJSC import deal from Georgia. With this product companies can benefit from the factoring financing scheme also in their import transactions, in particular, the importer has the opportunity to pay the seller with deferred payment term instead of making prepayment as the exporter is financed in its country immediately after the delivery.
