Accounts receivable typically make up 40% of a company’s assets. With past-due invoices and non-payments becoming more common, it becomes a very vulnerable asset. That’s where Trade Credit insurance comes in.

Trade credit or accounts receivable insurance helps businesses protect the capital they have in reserve and stabilize cash flow by reimbursing companies when their clients are unable to pay.
