Actually if you evaluate the landscape of the overall Funders in the market you generally see four (4) makeups.

1) Funder has a credit line usually structured as a senior debit facility on the receivables purchased

2) Funder has a private equity structure which allows "balance sheet" booking

3) Funder sells prior to or post closing the rights and receivables to a secondary market buyer

4) Funder has a lead in a transaction and syndicates the contract with multiple participants

The syndication model today is allowing for much more aggressive underwriting i.e. high risk. when not under the auspicious of a credit line or private equity firm, who require a whole slew of stipulations and conditions on SIC Code, credit scores, etc..
