Buyer Insolvency
Protracted Default
The cost of a bad debt needs to be counted as much more than simply the loss of money you were due to receive. The truth is you can never make up for the cost of a bad debt. The impact is immediate, it can put stress on cash flow and will certainly damage your profitability. Ask yourself now. what would be the consequences of one of your largest customers failing to pay you?
For most businesses the value of the debtors ledger (the money you are owed), is one of the largest assets and yet it is also often uninsured. Other important business assets are insured usually without question, yet the risk to a business of customer insolvency is perhaps one of the most volatile exposures.
