Concentration Risk and Trade Credit Insurance

Updated: Oct 15

Concentration risk occurs when a significant portion of a company’s revenue comes from a small number of customers. If one of these key customers defaults on payment or experiences financial difficulties, it can have a devastating impact on the business.


Trade credit insurance can be a valuable tool in mitigating concentration risk. Here's how:


Trade credit insurance may protect your business against the risk of non-payment by your customers. By insuring your accounts receivable, you can potentially:


  1. Reduce the risk of non-payment: Trade credit insurance can cover a significant portion of the value of your outstanding invoices, giving you peace of mind and protecting your cash flow.

  2. Diversify your risk: By insuring your accounts receivable, you can reduce your reliance on individual customers and spread the risk across a larger portfolio.

  3. Improve cash flow: With trade credit insurance, you can accelerate your cash flow by factoring in the insured value of your outstanding invoices.

  4. Enhance business relationships: Trade credit insurance can also help you build stronger relationships with your customers, as you can offer more competitive payment terms and pricing.


Trade credit insurance can be a valuable tool in mitigating concentration risk. By insuring your accounts receivable, you can reduce the risk of non-payment, diversify your risk, improve cash flow, and enhance business relationships. If your company has high concentration risk, consider exploring trade credit insurance options to protect your business and drive growth.
