It's an accounts text, I have translated this as "framework forfaiting" but I am not at all sure if this is the right way to translate it????

forfeiting under a framework agreement

I am not native English, but except if the context makes framework forfeiting evident, I would write forfeiting under a framework agreement. Is forfeiting in English quite clear as purchase of receivables? I have heard and read more about factoring (here in Huungary the two are different, forfeiting as such being usually done as a framework - i.e. series of similar transactions - in itself).

neutral Richard Benham : Two quibbles: German banks (even big ones) are famous for their bad English translations. And what happened to "Rahmen-"?

neutral RobinB : Agree with Richard. The English is rubbish. To me, the "Rahmen" implies some sort of Rahmenvertrag, or master agreement, that allows continuous forfaiting.

Some info to chew on.

Not for points; just some information that should help others more familiar with this sort of thing.

Die Rahmenforfaitierung ist individuell auf Ihre Erfordernisse zugeschnitten und ermöglicht Ihnen die fortlaufende Finanzierung von Forderungen aus Lieferungen und Leistungen. Das Konzept beruht auf Elementen der klassischen Forfaitierung und des Factoring, lässt sich aber wesentlich flexibler und einfacher handhaben.

Grundlage der Finanzierung ist ein einmal abzuschließender Rahmenvertrag, der den fortlaufenden Ankauf Ihrer Forderungen gewährleistet. Die Rahmenforfaitierung ist damit eine attraktive Alternative zur traditionellen Debitorenfinanzierung z. B. über Kontokorrent-, Zessions-, Eurokredite, Wechseldis-konte oder Factoring.
