Following a successful two year spell as vice-chair of the organisation, Nick Tiltman, credit and finance solutions director at TD SYNNEX, has been elected as chair of the association of International Credit and Trade Finance Professionals (ICTF), the membership-led community that brings credit professionals together to share knowledge and expertise and do a better job for their organisations, partners and customers.
► Credit and finance more important than ever for partners
► Helps TD SYNNEX share professional best practice
‘With the IT sector changing faster than ever, credit and finance have a vital role to play in ensuring customers can invest in new tech’ and partners can do profitable business, said Nick. ‘Being involved in the ICTF at a high level helps us to ensure we are aware of the latest developments and innovation and draw on the deep expertise and experience of other professionals. In the end, that’s beneficial not only for TD SYNNEX but also for our vendor and reseller partners.’
The continued migration to the cloud and adoption of hybrid infrastructures, alongside the desire to make IT investment more sustainable as well as affordable, has brought new challenges, he noted.
‘Credit and finance is now more important than ever for partners and we need to provide more financial flexibility than ever for our partners and their customers. We’re seeing increased use of Tech as a Service (TaaS) and Trade-in options, as well as the services of TD SYNNEX Capital. We’re seeing a more complicated credit and finance picture developing across the channel and our involvement in the ICTF helps us to get a really good perspective on how the landscape is evolving and how we can best adapt to meet the changing needs of the market.’
TD SYNNEX has an extensive finance and credit team and offers a range of services, from traditional leasing, through to the Tech-as-a-Service, subscription-based options, and the Credit Elevator programme, which enables resellers to lift their credit line from just £5000 to over £1 million through a series of steps without having to constantly re-apply for higher limits.
The ICTF advances the profession of credit management by providing unmatched expertise, leadership, powerful connections, and leading edge education and services to its members. It is an independent, not-for-profit organisation, providing a distinct advantage to those who seek greater expertise in the field of international credit and risk management.
