Author's Biography

Bill James is Enterprise Strategy Director for Creditsafe. With over 15 years’ experience in finance, risk management and data analytics, Bill understands exactly what enterprise businesses should be thinking about as they build their corporate growth and risk strategies. Prior to joining Creditsafe in 2021, he spent six years at Dun & Bradstreet as Area Vice President of Finance Solutions and Third-Party Risk & Compliance. Credit risk and international trade are two areas that are near and dear to Bill’s heart.
