Mastering Terms & Conditions - Their Role in the Credit Cycle

Introduction

It is widely acknowledged that contracts play a fundamental role in establishing and maintaining the framework of any commercial relationship. In fact, when disputes arise or things take an unexpected turn, one of the very first documents that legal professionals typically request is the contract itself, as it often holds the key to resolving the matter at hand.

This new virtual classroom seminar is designed to guide participants through the essential components that make up a solid contract. Key areas of focus will include insolvency events, retention of title, and mechanisms for dispute resolution.

In light of evolving business practices and the increasing role of digital platforms, the session will also delve into the importance of incorporating comprehensive website terms and conditions to ensure that online interactions are clearly governed and protected.

In addition to highlighting these crucial topics, this session will serve as a valuable reminder of the need for clear and unequivocal contractual terms. Even when business operations are running smoothly, the clarity of the agreements in place can prevent future conflicts and misunderstandings. Ultimately, the session will reinforce the importance of having well-structured and precise contractual frameworks, whether you are navigating challenges or simply ensuring long-term success in your commercial relationships.

This session is therefore suitable for credit control professionals, legal professionals and anyone who is interested in drafting robust contractual terms and conditions.
