What is Trade Credit Insurance?

Trade credit insurance is a valuable financial tool to help your business grow safely while safeguarding the portfolio from financial losses due to non-payment. Here are some key points to understand:

  • Risk Mitigation and Analysis

    Atradius analyzes industry trends and the credit risk in your portfolio to ensure that you are working with stable, financially strong businesses. We monitor your portfolio and evaluate the supply chain at every angle. If a customer starts to show signs of financial deterioration, we will alert you immediately so you can take the necessary steps to avoid a non-payment. If an unexpected loss occurs, you can file a claim and we will pay you 90% of the loss.

  • Sales and Market Expansion

    Atradius is a global company with a presence in over 50 countries. Our innovative products and services provide you with the practical tools you need to manage your receivables to build the foundation for solid business growth and success. Atradius can also enable your business to expand into new markets or extend credit to customers that you might otherwise consider too risky.

  • Strengthen Your Borrowing Power

    Traditional lending institutions are more inclined to provide a larger credit facility if the portfolio is insured with Atradius. This helps enable you to secure the working capital needed in order to prevent operational slowdowns due to potential cash flow shortages.

  • Cost Effective

    On average, the cost of a credit insurance policy is <.5% of a business’s annual insured sales. This cost is significantly less than what most companies set aside as a bad debt reserve, but our annual insurance premium is also tax deductible!

A mid-sized Consumer Products Manufacturer was limited in the opportunities they were able to sell due to foreign receivables being internally funded. Atradius was able to step in and implement a domestic and export credit insurance program that transformed pledged accounts receivable into “riskless” assets for the lender, allowing an increase in advance rates, inclusion of foreign receivables in the borrowing base, and elimination of concentration limits.

Legrand AV Brands has been in business in the U.S. for 25 years, providing power, light and data to millions of spaces around the world in the form of AV equipment and devices. Legrand AV is no stranger to trade credit insurance. The company made the switch to Atradius, however, after finding its previous insurer expensive, inefficient and overly complicated to work with.
