R. Bankruptcy Code Proceedings (part of Business Credit Principles)

image

The term bankruptcy comes from Latin and means “broken bench.” Originally, when a merchant failed to repay suppliers in a timely manner, the suppliers would break the benches that displayed the goods of the merchant. With a broken bench, that merchant was unable to conduct business. Today, bankruptcy is far more complex and is governed by federal law. This chapter presents the general basics of bankruptcy. As with all legal issues, credit professionals are urged to seek legal counsel.
