Learn legal strategies and best practices available for use when working with financially-troubled suppliers.
The economic ripple effects of COVID-19 have caused an increase in financial distress for many companies. When we think of financial distress, our first thought is often about customer defaults. But your suppliers' financial problems can quickly become your own, creating supply chain disruptions and saddling your business with additional costs. This topic offers proactive steps for determining if you have suppliers in distress and explains legal strategies and best practices available for use when working with financially-troubled suppliers. This material will also discuss how to prepare for the potential bankruptcy of a supplier and your potential options and rights in the case that a supplier seeks bankruptcy protection.
