Not every credit risk comes from a bad customer. Sometimes the biggest risk is too much exposure to one good customer.

When a single account represents a large portion of your receivables, your cash flow becomes dependent on that customer’s payment timing. Have you ever thought about this and how that impacts you?

Where concentration risk shows up

  • One customer holds a large percentage of AR

  • Large projects with extended payment terms

  • Revenue growth tied heavily to one account

  • Payment delays from a single customer affecting cash flow

Even strong customers can create pressure if balances grow too large.

Why this matters
If one large customer pays late, the impact can ripple through payroll, vendor payments, and your entire cash forecast.

What disciplined businesses watch

  • Percentage of total AR tied to one customer

  • Credit limits compared to exposure

  • Payment trends from large accounts

  • Forecast impact if a large payment slips

Customer concentration isn’t always avoidable. But it should always be monitored.
