The loan is paid in advance by the bank to the seller's enterprise: the bank then acts as the creditor's agent and then collects the buyer's enterprise. Although the loan subject of this business is the same as the account receivables pledge business, there is a difference between the two methods in the treatment of claims and debts.
  18. Self-service loan
    Self-service loan is to simplify the traditional pledge or mortgage loan procedures. Small and medium-sized enterprises can pledge (mortgage) once and use it repeatedly. It can be divided into two forms-deposit certificate pledge and real estate mortgage. By evaluating the pledge and collateral of SMEs in the bank, the bank grants certain credit lines to SMEs, and within the agreed period, SMEs can repeatedly carry out loan repayment business according to the credit lines. As long as it is repaid in a timely manner and has no bad records, the bank will automatically restore the original credit limit of SMEs after repayment, so that there is no need to re-apply for the next loan.
