In this episode of Navigating Risk host Helen Yates is joined by Sarah Winstone and Aaron Hill from Gallagher's Trade Credit team where they examine how growing complexity and global interdependencies are increasing credit risk across supply chains.
In today's environment, disruption rarely stays isolated. Insolvency or delayed payment in one part of the chain can quickly create a wider liquidity squeeze, impacting multiple organisations.
Sarah and Aaron discuss how trade credit insurance helps protect against non-payment while supporting cashflow and access to finance and why it's most effective when in place before risks escalate.
They also explore the growing value of insurer data and insight, helping businesses better understand counterparties and make more informed decisions.
