MACM helps me take better informed decisions both on whether to grant credit to new customers or to keep an eye on existing ones. The site is easy to use and the information is updated on a regular basis and available on demand.
MACM has made our credit management processes much more reliable and secure. Within an instant you can check the prospective or exiting client – whether it is an individual or a company. Intuitive credit related information is at your fingertips. The daily reports that we receive by e-mail are eye-opener to any potential future credit problems. I thoroughly recommend Maltese firms to join MACM.
We have been members and utilizing the services of MACM for the past ten years. Initially we have utilized MACM services to provide us with proficient financial reports on our potential foreign and local customers. Nowadays we utilize comprehensively the professional services provided by MACM to maintain our investment in accounts receivables on a daily basis. Based on our experience we highly recommend MACM services to the local business community.
GO Plc has been using the services offered by the MACM since 2001. Initially, we used to access MACM databases as part of our work to evaluate the credit worthiness of prospective clients, however, as of recently we are also using MACM services to monitor updates in the credit status of existing clients. We also take advantage of investing in our team, working in the Credit Control Department to attend specialised credit control related courses, which are organised regularly by MACM. GO views the professional services provided by MACM as an excellent tool, which complements its internal controls in an effort to mitigate bad debts exposure. GO recommends the services provided by the Malta Association of Credit Management to other entities.
Our most useful tool in the credit control procedure is access to the MACM web services. Suffice to say that this has resulted in a substantial reduction in debtor impairment.
