After the financial crisis of 2008–2009, there has been an increase in the use of open accounts, which enhances the possibilities for availing factoring for international trade. International factoring has witnessed considerable growth in the last decade. This article examines the relationship between international factoring and cross-border trade using Granger causality. It also examines the causal relations of international factoring with disaggregated data of cross-border trade of imports and exports. We find a unidirectional causal flow from international trade to international factoring, and a unidirectional casual flow from exports to international factoring. – Reproduced   aFactoring, Trade finance, Cross-border trade, International trade, Import, Export, Granger causality928848  aSociological Bulletin  aINTERNATIONAL TRADE  cAR  00102ddc40709392917aIIPAbIIPAd2021-12-16h70(3), Jul, 2021: p.314-330pAR125905r2021-12-16yAR
