JBT to discuss services at DMIA meeting

Members of The Jewelers Board of Trade (JBT) and the Diamond Manufacturers and Importers Association (DMIA) will hold a meeting outlining JBT's credit and collection services.

The information is scheduled to be shared during the DMIA's March 17 meeting at 3 West Club, on 51st Street just west of Fifth Avenue, beginning at 5:30 p.m.

JBT President Dione Kenyon will provide an overview of the JBT's credit and collection services, emphasizing how to use them to make well-informed credit decisions.

She also will cover the JBT's confidential Interchange Program, preview new credit services planned for the current year and the future, including the Memo Reporting Platform, a confidential reporting platform intended to supplement the JBT's existing reporting of accounts receivable exposure.

The JBT and the DMIA launched the platform in fall 2007 in response to heightened credit concerns in this industry.

The March 17 meeting also will include an open forum discussion, in which members are welcome to ask questions or express their views on any industry concerns.
