Credit management for industrial and trading companies

Optimize your financial value creation chain

For industrial and trading companies, the credit process is closely associated with the financial supply chain. Risk-orientated credit management is involved in the various activities of the financial supply chain. We analyse and design your credit and credit management processes and consider their interdependence with your financial supply chain. By means of efficient credit process design, you can reduce the costs and increase the contribution margins of your company. We support you in designing your credit processes according to the minimum requirements for credit management (MaCM) of the German Association for Credit Management (VfCM e.V.).

The specification of risk-related guidelines and instructions forms the basis of any efficient credit management. In this context, we develop an individual credit policy for you and support you in implementing it in your company.
