JBT, JVC to present webinar on memo risks and precautions

February 8, 2021
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Jewelers Board of Trade (JBT), in collaboration with the Jewelers Vigilance Committee (JVC), will host a webinar on conducting business on memo. Conducting Business on Memo: Risks & Precautions will be held Thursday, February 18, 2021 at 2:00 pm EST.

Memo transactions can be very risky for a supplier, especially in an economic downturn. During the Conducting Business on Memo: Risks & Precautions webinar, you will not only hear about the risks associated with memo transactions, but also learn how to evaluate credit risk and decide whether you need legal counsel, or the help of a UCC-filing service.

Jim Rocchio, Manager of the JBT Collections Department and Sara Yood, Senior Counsel for the Jewelers Vigilance Committee will discuss the pitfalls of memo transactions and the ways to protect your company. While you want your products to reach the marketplace, you don’t want that to happen at a bankruptcy-fire sale, with the proceeds going to someone else!
