"Credit"
"Credit"
is defined in the Oxford Dictionary (Burchfield, 1989, page
1138) as "belief, trust, faith and credence."
In the commercial sense it is defined as "trust or
confidence in buyer's ability and intention to pay at some
future time, exhibited by entrusting him with goods, etc.,
without present payment".
In
the nowadays business world the word "Credit"
encapsulates a great deal more than the dictionary definition
of the term. R.M.V. Bass's description (Edwards, 1988, page 3)
is: cash flow, marketing tool, liquidity and risk-exposure all
such terms are used to illustrate a basic truth which holds
goods in every period of human history; those with surplus
assets be they cash or goods will use those assets to stimulate
trade.
This
short paragraph not only spells out the nature of credit but
also directs the central issue of modern credit management.
