WHY COMPANIES USE CREDIT INSURANCE...
THE OPTIONS TO ELIMINATE TRANSACTIONAL CREDIT RISK...
SELF-INSURANCE
Many companies use self-insurance in the form of bad-debt reserves. This is money available to offset the deficit should any customer become unable to pay.
FACTORING
A factor is a company that purchases company's account receivables at a reduced amount of the face value. These cost may range from 1-10% depending on the components of the transactions.
LETTERS OF CREDIT
A documentary letter of credit is purchased by the buyer at a lender. A lender guarantees the payment of a buyer's obligation will be received on time and in the correct amount. The Letter of Credit reduces the buyer's cash on hand or their borrowing capacity, as it could be counted against the company's credit limit.
CREDIT INSURANCE
A business insurance policy that protects the seller against losses from the nonpayment of a commercial debt. By paying and established premium.
A credit insurance policy allow a company to confidently extend more credit to current customers, or pursue new, larger customers that could have been deemed too risky. The policy allows a company to increase sales and grow their business.

Actionable Economic Knowledge - The trade credit insurer's information database and technology platform help reduce operational and informational mistakes.

WHAT CREDIT INSURANCE IS NOT!...
Credit Insurance is not a substitute for good, thoughtful credit management. Sound credit management practices should be the basis of a credit insurance policy and an partnership.
The ultimate goal of credit insurance is not just to indemnify losses incurred in a default, but provide businesses with the support and knowledge they need to avoid mistakes before they happen.
