Person
In the words of Paul Bennett (Global Head of Credit & Receivables Management for ChevronTexaco Corporation), 'Ron Wells devotes considerable energy to maintaining his professional contacts and activities, and staying abreast of - indeed, at the cutting edge of - current developments and new products in his field. He continues as a thought leader amongst his peers, and has successfully implemented new products and practices which have added value to the company in his area.'
Ron believes passionately in the positive contribution that active credit management can make through increasing quality sales, improving the balance sheet structure and enhancing the risk profile of any business. He has spoken in many forums and written numerous articles on this theme, and on practical aspects of commercial credit management.
Ron is a Certified Credit Executive (CCE), an Associate of the Chartered Institute of Bankers (ACIB), a Chartered Management Accountant (ACMA), and a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (FCIS). He has practical experience in a range of commercial undertakings, in corporate and trade finance banking, and most recently as the Credit Executive for ChevronTexaco supporting its high value commercial activities in Europe, Russia, Africa and the Middle East.
