Borrowing Based Enhancement Example

The following model illustrates how a company can increase its borrowing capacity by insuring foreign receivables. Many banks will include foreign receivables in asset based lending calculations when the receivables are insured. By entering two variables, the model calculates the incremental borrowing capacity, and equivalent interest rate cost for the capacity. The credit insurance premium estimate is based on industry averages and assumes low or good loss history.

Asset based borrowing facility
