What Is Trade Insurance?
Protect your company’s most important asset — your accounts receivable (AR) portfolio. With Trade Credit Insurance, also known as Trade Credit Protection, you can safeguard cash flow, reduce bad debt risks, and strengthen confidence when extending credit to customers.
Why Protecting Receivables Matters?
For most SMEs and MNCs, receivables make up a large share of business assets. A single payment default or customer insolvency can create serious cash flow strain, affect supplier payments, and disrupt operations. By protecting receivables with trade credit insurance, you reduce the risk of unpaid invoices and maintain business stability even in uncertain times.
Key Benefits of Protecting Receivables:
Secure Cash Flow
Ensure continuity even if buyers delay or default on payments.
Mitigate Risks
Safeguard against insolvency, bankruptcy, or long-term defaults.
Expand Confidently
Extend credit to new markets and international buyers with reduced risk.
Strengthen Portfolio Quality
Build a reliable customer base by monitoring creditworthiness.
Improve Access to Financing
Banks view insured receivables more favorably, supporting better borrowing terms.
How Trade Credit Insurance Improves Customer Portfolio Quality
Protecting receivables goes beyond safeguarding cash flow — it improves the quality of your customer portfolio. With insurance in place, businesses can:
-
Evaluate Client Creditworthiness – Proactively assess which customers are safe to extend credit to.
-
Encourage Better Payment Practices – Customers are more likely to pay on time when terms are structured around credit protection.
-
Diversify Risk – Safely expand your customer base without over-relying on a few accounts.
-
Stabilize Growth – Maintain predictable income streams, even during volatile market conditions.
