Navigate the intricate world of credit risk management with Josh Simon of JAS Worldwide, who brings over 30 years of expertise to decode the essentials for safeguarding your supply chain finance. In an industry where the health of receivables can make or break a business, Josh's insights on robust metrics, informed credit decision-making, and the art of categorizing invoice statuses are nothing short of critical intelligence. We travel to Atlanta for a candid conversation that reveals how this global freight forwarder juggles operations across 100 countries and why the evolution of Josh’s role is a masterclass in adapting to the complexities of global trade.
Through our talk, we uncover the hurdles of assessing credit risk amidst a sea of incomplete information and shine a light on the strategic alliances with data providers like CreditSafe that bring clarity to the chaos. The fusion of credit risk management and project management principles becomes evident as we discuss stakeholder buy-in, the vital RFP/RFQ processes, and how a symbiotic relationship between sales and risk departments is fostered by comprehensive data. If you're looking to strengthen your team dynamics and project success through cooperative credit risk strategies, Josh Simon's experiences and strategies are your invaluable guide.
