Testimonials

“I have been a member of the IFA since 2001 and have never been involved  in a member based organization that is more committed to factoring.  Its education, networking and the sharing of ideas and best practices amongst its members is the primary reason I accepted the President’s role in the newly created Northeast Chapter. I hope that, along with my fellow Northeast Chapter of IFA board members, we can continue to bring such benefits and attributes to the independent factors and purchase order finance companies from Boston to Northern Virginia.”

Stuart J. Rosenthal 

Executive Vice President

"The IFA has played an intricate part of my professional career development over the past two decades.  Information obtained from this association has enhanced my factoring knowledge and provided many years of good friendships. I'm very excited about participating in the IFA's newly established Northeast Chapter!"
