About the Webinar
The Covid-19 crisis is morphing into a payment crisis as companies tend to protect their working capital by paying their suppliers late. Defaults and insolvencies loom ahead. Companies need to understand structural payment patterns to help them triage bad payers from the good ones in finding their way back to growth. Understanding the power structure in your clients’ country can become a useful compass during the Covid-19 crisis; the Euler Hermes’ Country Risk database serves this purpose. What is the relationship between national culture and payment defaults between companies? Which countries should be on your accounts receivables watch list? Discuss these questions and more insolvency-related aspects during tomorrow’s keynote with Ludovic Subran, Chief Economist, Allianz SE
