What’s Credit Management?

Credit management is an approachto assure buyers pay on time in a cost effective manner without making any harmson your clients’ relationships. The objective to manage your credit portfoliois nothing but to maintain a balance between steady sales and a consistent cashflow, at the same time, keeping bad debts as low as possible.

Keeping bad debts under control

Although bad debts is almost unavoidable when running a business, no matter how prominence your company is, no matter how long your company has already been established, no matter how reputable, how powerful your company is, creditors spontaneously put their debts aside for various reasons. Some might be temporarily short offunds, but some might have been heavily indebted for years. Some of them may encounter difficulties due to certain incidents, but some may encounter the same due to poor management. Some of their financial stability might be highly dependenton the economic cycle, turning from a strong financial position to bankruptcy, just within months. Or simply, some could even leave their debts intentionally as a fraud.
