Bad debts can impact on your business in many ways. They divert funds away from areas such as salaries, marketing, manufacturing and many other areas. Credit insurance provides policyholders with a predetermined premium spend which can be pre-budgeted. This allows Companies to concentrate on sales and manufacturing with the knowledge that they can call upon their credit insurance policy in the event of a bad debt.
An analysis of the level of new sales required to eliminate the impact of a bad debt can be seen as follows :
A company who suffers a €50,000 bad debt operating on a profit margin of 5% would need to increase sales by €1,000,000 in order to stand still.
This level of increase may be completely unrealistic for many businesses and most will suffer due to a debt of this size. With a Credit Insurance policy arranged by Trade Credit Brokers the impact of this bad debt can be significantly reduced.
