The US government has thrown a slew of laws on collection agencies, making bad-debt recovery harder and costlier. Lower recoveries mean, low recoveries and extensive loss for businesses and doctors. Our government’s intention behind these laws is not wrong, but the ground reality is different. .

As a business owner, it's important to stay on top of your accounts receivable, especially when it comes to business-to-business (B2B) transactions. Accounts receivable refers to the money that your clients owe your company for goods or services that have been provided but not yet paid for. B2B accounts receivable management can be a bit more complex than consumer (B2C) accounts receivable, so it's important to understand how to manage your accounts effectively.

When we talk about “compliance and security," most companies want to ensure that steps are being taken to protect what they value most – people, data, real or personal property, intellectual property, digital assets, or any other number of other things - and it’s more important than ever that safeguards are in place.

Indeed, in November 2021, the total cryptocurrency market capitalization reached an all-time high of approximately $3 trillion.
