WHAT IS CREDIT INSURANCE?
Credit insurance is a form of casualty insurance which protects manufacturers, merchants and other suppliers of goods and services against losses that may result from nonpayment by their customers after granting credit terms to domestic or foreign buyers. It does not cover physical damage to the product. It is not akin at all to credit life insurance.
