Common Causes of Trade Credit Disputes
Trade credit disputes arise for various reasons, including:
Non-Payment
If buyers cannot pay for goods or services within the specified time-frame.
You can only exercise this option if you have concerns about the quality, disagreements about the contract, or financial problems and are doing so according to the terms and conditions of sale.
Delayed Payment
Payment delays can strain cash flow for suppliers, putting them under pressure to meet their due date obligations.
Account terms should contain provisions relating to dealing with delayed payments.
Quality of Goods or Services
Disputes regarding goods or services can damage the supplier's reputation. These disputes can also make it challenging for the buyer to meet their credit agreement.
Breach of Contract
Contract breaches can lead to arguments in trade credit agreements. Both sides will seek solutions for the alleged problem. These solutions may involve issues with the Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009.
Insolvency
Insolvency occurs when a party cannot pay its debts, leaving suppliers and creditors with limited options under the National Credit Code.
Understanding these problems is crucial when dealing with trade credit disputes.
This is especially true when short-term interest rates, credit protection, and credit report information are involved.
