New On TRICOM.com! TRICOM’s May Industry Insider webinar, The Staffing Industry is Using Credit Insurance, Why Aren’t You?, is now available online!

Derek Gannon from Trade Risk Group discusses credit insurance and the many benefits that come along with the right policy and broker partner in place, including ways to enhance borrowing arrangements, grow sales safely, receive credit decision support, rest assured with credit insurance protection, and compare credit insurance solutions.

June 1989 Fun Fact: In honor of TRICOM’s 30th Anniversary, we’ll be sharing fun facts from 1989 — TRICOM’s first year in business. In June 1989, Japan was the first country to begin regular broadcasting of High Definition Television (HDTV) programs as they’re known today with the widescreen aspect ratio and high quality picture (although they were originally an analog system, not digital). It took until 1996 for the technology to reach the U.S. airwaves, as the FCC rejected this early HDTV technology due to its high bandwidth requirements since more and more channels were being introduced and the lack of bandwidth was already presenting a problem. This led to the development of a new, more efficient standard than Japan’s original HDTV option. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-definition_television
