Partners

  • At Coface South Africa, we value the role of the broker channel in the business community.
     
    Brokers can add value to the relationship they have with their clients, by educating them on credit management issues such as how to avoid the problems of bad debt and late payment, thereby giving clients an opportunity to secure and grow their business.
    We respect this broker-client partnership and believe it is the route through which we can best make companies aware of our services.
