The strength of the Credit Research Foundation is its members. While widely diversified in business industry, category and size, there is a common thread among the individuals who represent their companies as members. That synthesis is their eagerness to become involved in improving and enhancing the profession of business credit and receivables management. The membership in CRF is the stimulus for all its activities. Projects, publications and forums are developed at the request of members who then contribute their knowledge, expertise and time to participate in making our products beneficial for all members.
A membership contribution in the Credit Research Foundation lends to the advancement of the credit profession by funding a variety of projects undertaken by the Research Committee and staff of the Foundation.
Below is a member listing of companies contributing to the Credit Research Foundation. To respect the privacy of our many non-company (personal) members, we have excluded their names from this listing.
