Credit Interchange Meetings and Education

FMCA hosts credit interchange meetings and educational events featuring top industry speakers who address topics vital to credit professionals in the home furnishings sector.

For the credit interchange meetings, members submit dealer accounts for review and discussion.

Discussions are conducted under strict Federal Antitrust guidelines to ensure compliance and fairness.

Meetings are accessible both in person and via teleconference, offering flexible participation.

Through FMCA’s Interchange Meetings, community networking, and educational programs, members build valuable professional relationships that enhance their daily credit management and decision-making.

"I have trusted FMCA to assist me with risk management for my company for over 20 years and they have never let me down"
Rick ClantonDirector of Credit - CR Laine
"Educational meetings are built around community, and the camaraderie has been super!"
Credit Manager
“FMCA is operated by Credit Professionals who understand the Information, Services, and Education that credit managers really need. It is by far the first and most reliable source that I have for making day-to-day credit decisions.”
Credit Manager
"Some collection agencies you can't trust, but FMCA has more trust because it is member-owned."
Credit Director
"The collection services are one of the industry's best! The recoveries are great, the rates are reasonable, and the service provided is professional. I worked for a previous company that required that I spread my placements among a few different agencies. It did not take long for me to show executive management what an unwise decision that was based on actual dollars recovered and fees charged!”
AR & Credit Director
“Their collection staff has helped us collect those accounts that have been difficult and time-consuming for my staff to collect. FMCA also provided valuable educational sessions at a fraction of the cost of other providers of similar information. In short, FMCA has helped me grow as a credit manager to become much more effective over the years that I would have otherwise.”
Credit Manager
“I love the fact that I can always depend on FMCA’s Staff to be extremely helpful, informative, and professional. Being part of FMCA has been a game changer in the way I manager credit risk and collect receivables.”
Wendy TesterDirector of Credit - Lee Industries
"The FMCA Collection Department is the perfect agency to use for your collection accounts. They respond quickly and professionally. When we use our own agency, all members are aware of the actions taken. What better tool to use than our own?"
Director of Credit
“The new 10 Day Final Demand is awesome. It really gets the attention of the customer. I would say within the first few hours, if not sooner, once the email goes out to them we get a response. I would recommend this service to anyone that is trying to collect an older debt and have exhausted all other avenues. I am well pleased with this and will continue using this feature going forward. In my words this is awesome! “
