Description
Trade credit risk has historically been an extremely challenging asset for captives to handle. It’s revolving, granular and self-liquidating nature meant ‘point-in-time’ risk was always difficult to monitor. However, technology has now removed many of those challenges. Trade receivables are an increasingly critical asset class from a finance perspective – often the largest asset on the balance sheet of many companies.
As we emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic with credit insurers and other financial institutions re-evaluating the credit capacity they are prepared to commit to an insured’s customers and suppliers, now is an ideal time to understand how a captive program can help optimize credit risk management, financing and bad debt provisioning.
In this webinar, we look at current trends in credit insurance and how a captive can add value to an organization’s management of its credit risk while informing the real-time management of critical customer relationships. The webinar will also explore other ways in which a captive can be used to provide valuable liquidity to its parent organization.
This webinar is suitable for any captive owner considering additional ways in which it can add value to its parent organization as well as those interested in understanding the use of an insurance and captive strategy for liquidity.
