Credit Eureka, a Leading Trade Credit Insurance Agency, Announces Post-petition Protection Opportunities for Toys R Us Suppliers

October 19, 2017

San Francisco, California – October 18, 2017. Credit Eureka, a leading provider of trade credit insurance, is proud to announce preliminary credit insurance products for suppliers with exposure to Toys R Us. Toys R Us filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in September.trade credit insurance

“I think we can all agree that there’s no reason for the Toys R Us bankruptcy to result in kids getting ‘scrooged’ before the holiday. With its recent bankruptcy filing, it will be important to maintain the availability of working capital for Toys R Us suppliers. While traditional credit insurance markets have pulled back, other trade credit products are available to help,” explained Dawson Beattie, President and Founder. “It is an ideal time for companies to learn about these other options, especially if their business has meaningful dependencies to traditional retailers. We are encouraging businesses to reach out and learn more about AR put options, and our newly updated page on the topic helps them learn about how these work.”

Interested parties are referred to the updated page on AR puts, or the more general trade credit insurance information. Businesses that may benefit from these insurance products are encouraged to reach out for a confidential consultation with the company, as are journalists or bloggers seeking information on how trade credit insurance works in light of retail bankruptcies such as Toys R Us.

BACKGROUND ON THIS ANNOUNCEMENT

Credit markets are beginning to develop for suppliers holding unpaid invoices from the “pre-bankrupt” Toys R Us, as well as for suppliers hoping to make sales to Toys R Us ahead of and following the holiday season. As a leading independent insurance agency offering trade credit insurance, Credit Eureka is ideally positioned to help clients create strategies and explore options to function in this “new normal” in American retail, one in which the reliability of payment cannot be taken for granted.
