Why Credit Risk Is Rising in Colorado
As Colorado’s cannabis market continues to evolve, financial pressure is increasing across the supply chain. Years of price compression, oversupply, and tighter margins have created cash flow strain for many operators.
Common payment challenges include:
Invoices stretching beyond agreed Net terms
Consistent slow-pay patterns becoming routine
Partial payments with unresolved balances
Aging receivables moving past 60, 90, or 120+ days
Operators downsizing, restructuring, or consolidating
CCA helps identify warning signs such as:
Repeat slow-payment behavior across trade partners
Businesses trending toward delinquency or collections
Rapid growth paired with inconsistent payment performance
License categories showing elevated default risk
Sudden changes in payment trends
