Pledging of Accounts Receivable

Home » CMA Glossary Term » Corporate Finance » Pledging of Accounts Receivable

Pledging of Accounts Receivable, also known as pledging receivables, refers to the practice where a business uses its accounts receivable as collateral to secure a loan. This financial arrangement allows the company to access immediate funds while the lender gains a claim on the receivables in case of default. It is a common method for improving liquidity without selling the receivables outright.
