Introducing Ron Wells .....
The
majority of working capital throughout most economies is provided in the form of
Supplier Credit and businesses can only survive and grow to the extent that they
have access to such credit. Businesses
of various sizes provide employment; creating employees who are customers and
thus a virtuous circle. Those
who grant trade credit must however be careful to ensure that customer
businesses will be in a position to repay, which means they must anticipate that
those in charge of the debtor businesses are honest, capable in their business
line and have a sustainable business model.
Ron
is the author
of 'The Chameleon in the Room: Embrace Business Risk - Assure Survival &
Growth' With
a broad range of international experience in bank corporate lending, trade
finance and physical commodity corporate credit, Ron has successfully fused
trade finance tools with traditional counterparty risk management practices to
create solutions. This has been made
possible by the expansive business knowledge base that he has accumulated, which
is constantly updated by reading, research and attending courses. He
has built a wide network of essential contacts through active membership of
various professional associations, such as the International Energy Credit
Association (IECA).
Ron is also author of ‘Credit Risk Management – The Novel, Part One’ published as an e-Book in April 2013 and in Paperback in August 2014, see details here. An
ability to relate effectively to people of all levels has been achieved by
undertaking countless counterparty visits in many countries, including the
Former Soviet Union. Having worked
in South Africa, the UK and Singapore, and travelled widely across the globe Ron
has an excellent understanding of key business cultures.
His most significant experience is in pro-actively supporting the
physical trading of commodities; including Crude Oil, Refined Petroleum, Natural
Gas, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), Coal, Power, Green
House Gas Emission Credits, Physical Freight, Plastics, Base and Precious Metals;
and associated derivatives, including Forward
Freight Agreements (FFAs). Believing that worthwhile, seemingly impossible objectives may be obtained, by persistently maintaining a ‘can-do’ attitude, Ron is keen to contribute to the success of ambitious risk managers and ethical enterprises of all kinds. WORK EXPERIENCE:
