Vermont Debt Collection Tips

The end of the year is fast approaching and your delinquencies may be up but you see no hope in collecting the money that is due. Then the delinquent customer who was paying files for bankruptcy and other creditors that the customer owes money to are demanding payments as well. You may wonder what hope you have left to collect your outstanding receivables once the bankruptcy is filed. By working with the financially troubled customer you may be able to obtain a partial or full payment. However, many customers will do whatever possible to avoid paying their delinquent account and you are left with the decision to take serious action. Turning over a past due account to a collections agency will result in the rapid collection of the past due balance and will eliminate the frustration and hassle of collecting from the customer .

Burt & Associates is a SAS-70 Type II certified, SAS70 compliant commercial collection agency and we are here to assist you with your business receivables management needs.

Educational Tidbits For Today's Credit Executive
Changing Management During a Bankruptcy Filing

The feasibility of changing management of a bankrupt firm depends somewhat on the size of the company. Many, perhaps most, small companies that file Chapter 11 would probably collapse without current management because of their personal contacts, etc. Particularly for smaller firms, creditors could find it hard or unwise to demand a management change. But larger businesses that file for bankruptcy protection often can continue without current management. In fact, creditors may want to think about replacing existing managers unless the managers who had brought the firm into bankruptcy have already been replaced.

The Credit Manager’s Q&A Corner

QUESTION: Explain the term “adequate protection”.

ANSWER: Adequate protection is the right of a party with an interest in the debtor's property (such as a secured creditor) to assurance that its interest will not be diminished during the bankruptcy proceedings.
