About
I was working in corporate job while finding the majority of Chinese companies without credit control even basic credit check prior to sales. Massive largest enterprises have no credit management, not to mention small and medium-sized enterprises (SME). Combine my experience, passions and career plan, I decided to take the leap of faith and go out my own outsource credit control service. I enjoyed doing credit control and account receivable management because I knew that could really help SME and large public enterprises improve finance liquidity and influence business development in a positive fashion. I think credit control is sort of educating, how to educate both internal and external would significantly determine the outcomes. I already reviewed the current solutions in the market and found that many peers are still focusing on debt collection. In fact, this is the last resort of account receivable management solution. Normally, the collection cost would go higher and the collection rates would go lower, in particular the longer aged (age> 90 days) amounts. Instead, it would make business relationship even worse than pre intervention with polite educated way. I comprehend how companies are struggling to improve free cash flow, in particular SME, how to balance risk and business is somewhat the two ends of Libra. Our mission is to utilize our expertise and my global partner with decades outsourced experiences to help our clients reach next level in their business. # outsourced credit control# # outsourced collections # # business credit report # # international debt recovery #
