Default, insolvent buyers and political uncertainty are just some of the risks associated with international trade. Unfamiliarity with new buyers also can deter sellers from extending credit. Trade credit insurance can help companies circumvent these types of risks and concerns. Learn how credit insurance can help credit professionals offer buyers attractive terms, while protecting receivables.

Marsh’s John Molli will explain what trade credit insurance is, how it works and how companies use it to manage receivables risk, as well as share some case studies of how companies use it.
