    c. The factor assumes the risk of collectibility and absorbs any credit losses in collecting the receivables.

    Explanation:

    Recourse: The company who is selling the accounts receivable promise that will buy back any uncollected invoices. The risk for uncollected invoices stays with the firm. Only the effort to collect is being passed.

    f there is no recourse, when the clients accounts debtors defaults the lender assumes the losses.

    Because of this, factoring without recourse usually is more expensive than without.
