Payment practices in Indonesia
Some of our recent research in Indonesia includes our annual review of international B2B payment practices: the Atradius Payment Practices Barometer . The results of this survey revealed that in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic global recession, businesses in Indonesia have been hit hard by late payments and the majority of businesses expect to see an increased dependence on bank finance. Despite this the use of trade credit as a source of short-term finance remains low compared to the regional average and the use of cash payments is above average for the region. Such results suggest many businesses could benefit from a greater use of credit insurance.
What is trade credit insurance?
Trade credit insurance protects your business from the risk of customer payment default. If your customer is late in settling your invoice, or goes bust with debts to you still outstanding, credit insurance can help protect your accounts receivable. And if the debt owed to you is significant to your business operation, credit insurance may prevent your business from entering insolvency.
Depending on your policy, trade credit insurance solutions can protect your business with both domestic trade in Indonesia and international export trade. It can be a useful tool in exploring new markets and engaging with new customers.
