Late payments are one of the biggest challenges for foreign companies in China. Conventional collection methods are often unstructured: cases are either escalated without proper diagnosis, or necessary actions are delayed out of concern for preserving customer relationships. In addition, the legal dimension is often neglected: not only preemptive measures such as contract design, but also reactive actions such as legal tools are frequently not fully used.
In this event, we will provide solutions for these options. Our experts will guide you in a deep dive into the related strategic, operational and legal aspects.
Business Lens – How to Get Paid Faster While Preserving Customer Relationships
In this session, Knut Wiszniewski, Founder & Managing Partner of Knut and Partners, will share a framework for delayed accounts receivables management in China. The main target of this experience-based approach is a relationship-oriented strategy.
Why collection management in China requires a clear diagnostic approach
How to distinguish between inability and unwillingness to pay
What role internal decision paths and approval hierarchies (SOE vs. POE) play
How to convert negotiation into written commitments
How to shorten time to payment while safeguarding valuable business relationships
Legal Lens – Legal Tools, Credit Checks & Smart Contract Design
In her presentation, Ms. Wang Jingyi, Senior Associate at WZR China, will update you on recent related regulations and introduce practical legal tools. Insights regarding contract design strategies and credit system pre-screening round up her input.
What China's new payment protection regulations for SMEs (effective June 1, 2025) mean for your business
What key legal tools are available, including fast-track court procedures (“payment orders”) and property preservation measures such as bank account freezes
