How next level data integration radically improves credit management

Credit management requires speed and accuracy, but the truth is that most businesses aren’t equipped to provide the right data fast and easy. We see this every day, and it is hurting businesses. It slows credit management down to error-prone manual tasks that have to make up for the lack of integration between information systems. Of course, these systems were built to serve other purposes, such as CRM, production, or logistics, but isn’t it about time for credit management to move into the fast paced, connected digital era?

 

Become more independent

The customers we work for are active in different industries, but they all share the same need to become more independent from their internal IT organization as well as from specialized third parties. As Chief Credit Officer Adrian Johansen Henanger at Optin Bank put it: “We were frustrated by the time it took to make even smaller adjustments in our risk rules. We were also frustrated about the dependency on 3rd party resources to make these adjustments.” Now they work with automated flows for credit check related to factoring, new and all existing accounts without having to wait for IT or third party resources to get it done!

 

Integration with Big Data

Risk management requires access to vast databases of external sources such as Credit Safe, Graydon, Euler Hermes, and more. Our automated workflows make sure you have the data necessary to make better decisions when accepting new customers or assessing existing ones. You can also use these data to differentiate your approach when invoicing customers with lower credit scores. The possibility to connect to significant data sources is limitless; you can even include the weather forecast.

 

Integrate with service providers

Because debtors tend to shy away from payment issues, convenience is a major element tBecause debtors tend to shy away from payment issues, convenience is a significant element to overcoming their lethargy. In fact, comfort and attention are the drivers for success on a much broader scope in today’s markets. This is where integration with payment providers such as Ayden, DigiAccept, or Paypal comes in. Integrate easy payment with communication platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, email or text messages, and drastically increase the payment ratio.
