CREDIT CHECKING

A bit of homework before you begin work

While it’s natural for organisations to face difficult times occasionally, some businesses are perennially in trouble, either due to inadequate management skills or malpractices. This is why when you are about to engage in business with another company or even an individual, it’s always wise to do some background research, especially around their financials and credit history.
