Spanish term

líneas de descuento de facturas

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
This is from an agreement (Spain). This particular section is related to matters addressed by the company's governing body:

Concertar préstamos u otras operaciones de financiación por un importe superior a XXX euros si se trata de operaciones de arrendamiento financiero o YYYY euros en **líneas de descuento de facturas** (el límite de YYYY euros podrá excederse en un importe igual a las cantidades destinadas a amortización anticipada obligatoria de conformidad con lo descrito en el contrato de financiación), salvo aquellas operaciones cuyo objetivo sea la financiación del capital circulante.

Is is something along the lines of factoring?

Thanks in advance!
Proposed translations (English)

you could also say

but in this context I much prefer discounting.

invoice discount lines

In this case, discount lines concern the invoices (e.g., the bank pays you now what is owed to you pursuant to a certain invoice).

See example sentence and web refs for further info.
Example sentence:

Las líneas de descuento, son un producto financiero que consiste en que el banco nos adelanta el dinero que tenemos en letras o pagarés, y nos cobra por ello.

Hello Alistair, thanks for your answer but I'm finding very few hits on Google for this term. Is that how it is worded?
