Credit insurance is known by a variety of names including; trade credit insurance, bad debt insurance, debtor insurance, debtor protection, business credit insurance and export credit insurance, amongst other names. Credit insurance is purchased by businesses to protect themselves against the risk that a buyer defaults on a payment obligation due to a customer's insolvency, default or political causes.
We know how important trade credit can be to your business, and how credit insurance can help your organisation flourish by protecting against the potentially disastrous effects of bad debts.
