14.4 Factoring arrangements The Group factors trade receivables in France by entering into factoring agreements with a third party for a maximum capacity of €235 million. This agreement matures on October 29, 2021. The Group factors trade receivables in Germany, Switzerland and Czech Republic by entering into factoring agreements with a third party for a maximum capacity of €150 million. This agreement matures on October 29, 2021. Constellium Automotive USA entered into a factoring agreement which provides for the sale of specific account receivables up to a maximum capacity of $25 million. The facility was amended, on December 11, 2018, to increase maximum capacity to $33 million and to extend the maturity to December 11, 2019. Muscle Shoals entered into a factoring agreement which provides for the sale of specific trade receivables up to a maximum capacity of $375 million. The agreement matures on January 24, 2020. Under the Group’s factoring agreements, most of the trade receivables are sold without recourse. Where the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the receivables, the receivables are derecognized. Some remaining receivables do not qualify for derecognition under IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments, as the Group retains substantially all the associated risks and rewards. Under the agreements, at December 31, 2018, the total carrying amount of the original assets factored is €601 million (December 31, 2017: €642 million) of which:
| • |  | €446 million (December 31, 2017: €473 million) have been derecognized from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as the Group transferred substantially all of the associated risks and rewards to the factor;
| • |  | €155 million (December 31, 2017: €169 million) were recognized on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
There was no debt due to the factor relating to trade account receivables sold at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Covenants The factoring arrangements contain certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including some relating to the administration and collection of the assigned receivables, the terms of the invoices and the exchange of information, but do not contain maintenance financial covenants. The commitment of the factor to buy receivables under the Muscle Shoals factoring agreement is subject to certain credit ratings being maintained. The Group was in compliance with all applicable covenants at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. 14.5 Finance lease receivables The Company was the lessor for certain finance leases with third parties for certain of its property, plant and equipment located in Sierre, Switzerland until July 2018. The finance lease receivables amounted to €12 million for the year ended December 31, 2017.
