This Kit is a practical resource to enable its users to work quickly, efficiently and
securely on the legal point of view. It aims at providing the reader with information, a
methodology and tools to better preserve the creditor company's interests in the
framework of debt collection proceedings on insolvent debtors in the Ohada Zone. Indeed
:
. the reader may have access to the critical information on trade middlemen’s
contracts in the Ohada Zone with all the basic information made available in this
connection ;
. moreover, this Kit sheds the light on some details and practical items often
overlooked while reading legal or doctrinal material, which are though important and
sometimes even essential elements to take into account in the daily follow-up of files
(formalities and deadlines to comply with, procedures to follow etc.). Such details are
included in pieces of advice, checklists etc. easily accessible:
, the Kit also includes samples of documents and forms which may be directly used;
. finally, the legal provisions of the Uniform Act on General Commercial Law
governing trade middlemen in the Ohada zone (*) are reproduced, sparing the need of
searching them elsewhere when the user needs to check some point.
It should enable you :
- to rapidly and precisely identify the existing opportunities and obstacles or
restraints in these proceedings with their characteristics : local proceedings, proceedings
within several countries, according to the creditor's status (secured or unsecured...) ,
- to decide knowingly after assessing the situation,
- to be really present (or give relevant instructions) at the key steps of the
proceedings, to best promote the creditor company's interests.
The forms and the Uniform Act are included in a document you can access by
clicking here (a glimpse at the table of contents of the forms p. 84).
I hope you find this Kit useful !
