CREDIT INSURANCE

Uses of credit insurance

2. It restores the working capital lost through bad debt.
3. It serves as a defense for divided maintenance.
4. It reinforces credit control management through information made available by the insurer to establish those losses that can be avoided by the policy holder.
5. It helps to minimize debts.
6. It is used as a substitute to the provision for bad debts in the profit and loss account of the seller.
7. It helps to check the excesses of sales staff whose desires for high turnover may make them imprudent in granting trade credit.

The risks covered by credit insurance

a. Loss due to inability or unwillingness on the part of the buyer to pay for

goods sold and delivered to him, or service rendered on credit terms.

b. The seller could be protected up to seventy percent (70%) to ninety

percent (90%) but not 100% to make him an insurer of himself in order to

be very careful in granting of credit.

c. Credit insurance excludes hire purchase business considered to be the

legitimate field of the banking sector and members of public because of the

difficulties in the assessment of such risk.

d. It deals with the normal trade involving sales and delivery of goods and

provision of services.
