Traditionally, a high proportion of importers, merchants and joinery product manufacturers insure their receivables on a whole turnover basis, although some companies do not insure as they want a more tailored approach to their risks and cannot get what they want from the insurer market.

IRC Europe set up a facility for a large manufacturer who had never insured any of its ledgers. Typically its customer mix was both large, less risky companies as well as smaller, under-capitalised privately owned limited and unlimited businesses. A policy was put in place to insure the latter and exclude the former, much to the relief of the new client.
