To address this problem, Stephen Mills, founder of Kenya’s first licensed Credit Reference Bureau, CRB Africa, has developed a cash flow solutions firm, Veri-Credit Trade Sector Bureau. For 20 years, Mills has managed financial sector credit reference bureaus and their debt collection arms, in eight sub-Saharan Africa countries. In an exclusive interview with the Star, Mills explains what the Veri-Credit Trade Sector Bureau is, how it works and how it is important. I decided to start sub-Saharan Africa’s first commercial credit bureau known as Veri-Credit Trade Sector Bureau because the credit bureaus I started many years ago are for banks servicing the financial sector. What is in the market is a financial sector credit bureau that targets the banks and other financial institution.
