About DF Group
The main business activities of DF Group are the purchase and sale of
selected export receivables in emerging markets on a non-recourse basis.
The objective is to sell on the acquired receivables at the same time or in
the short term. Forfaiting is an increasingly important tool in export
financing, with volumes rising in line with growth in international trade
and the continuing advance of globalization. Creating tradable products
from receivables benefits both exporters and buyers. As well as
transferring risk to the buyer, the main benefit of forfeiting for
exporters is the inflow of cash. This relieves the exporters’ credit lines
and improves their balance sheet structure. DF Deutsche Forfait AG
structures receivables attractively, so that investors seek them as a type
of investment.
