What type of business can benefit from invoice discounting?

Invoice discounting is a form of business finance where a business obtains an advance on approved submitted invoices. With invoice discounting, an advance on invoices is paid by the invoice discounter in a similar way to an advance paid by a factoring company.

A fundamental difference, however, is that with invoice discounting, the company retains control over the administration of its sales ledger and book debt collection.
