Credit management is becoming more challenging as economic uncertainty, rising costs, tariffs, and tighter lending conditions put pressure on businesses across the lumber and building material industry.

In this episode of LBM Talks Credit, Thea Dudley welcomes Sid Malladi, CEO of Nuvo, to discuss the biggest trends shaping trade credit in 2026. They explore why credit teams are carrying more risk than ever, how technology and AI are changing the way credit decisions are made, and why the role of the credit manager is evolving into something much more strategic.

If you're responsible for protecting cash flow, managing risk, or supporting growth, this conversation offers practical insights into where credit is headed and how to prepare for what's next.
