By GlobalDataMilo Bogaerts, chief executive officer of Euler Hermes for the UK and Ireland, said: “We live in uncertain times. Trade, investment and consumer spending are driven by confidence, and uncertainty is the enemy of confidence.
“Businesses leaders need to plan ahead for how future risks like Brexit might impact them and their supply chains. Plus recent high profile corporate failures reinforce the need to be increasingly aware of the risks of late or non-payment for goods and services provided on credit. This is why MarketInvoice is our partner of choice to help businesses trade with confidence.”
