Reading Global Credit Management will help you * wake the sleeping giant on your balance sheet * make receivables earn their keep, just like every other asset. * wrest control of credit from bureaucratic processes, grab it by the throat and wring out every drop of value. * And last but by no means least, boost the value of your company. "...one of the most intelligent and refreshing exposés of the present and future role of international credit management that I have read in a long time. Global Credit Management represents a very welcome and innovative addition to the small library of quality publications available on international credit and risk management." --Tim Lane, Director of European Operations, Finance, Credit and International Business (FCIB)
