Celebrating 4 years
since NACM Southwest merged with
Shreveport Wholesale Credit Association, Inc.
"Jerry, Thanks to you and your local staff, I can honestly say that this is one of the few mergers/buy outs that has been basically “transparent” to us, your customer! I’m glad that the local staff remained and as expected, continued to provide the highest level of service to us as we always experienced. All I can hope for is that the local staff doesn’t retire before I do!!!!" - Shreveport Member

The Credit Managers’ Index (CMI) is created from a monthly survey of credit and collection professionals. The CMI survey asks NACM members to rate favorable and unfavorable factors in their monthly business cycle. Favorable factors include sales, new credit applications, dollar collections and amount of credit extended. Unfavorable factors include rejections of credit applications, accounts placed for collections, dollar amounts of receivables beyond terms and filings for bankruptcies. The results provide a benchmarking and forecasting tool that looks at the entire cycle of commercial business transactions. The CMI has gained rapid acceptance among the business and financial community as an economic indicator to both watch and report on.
