One step higher are even the so-called bad debts. This type of debt arises due to the debtor's inability to meet a certain expense, either because he has become financially insolvent, has lost his job or has refused to pay the debt for a specific reason.
On many occasions, have uncollected debts The company's business processes may be slowed down or even cause uncertainty as to its near future. At the most radical extreme, the defaulted debts jeopardize the company's own economic viability.
Collect debts from delinquent customers is possible, but it is not simple. Although it may seem an easy and affordable process, we often find that this is not the case. That is why it is advisable to seek the intervention and help of professionals to carry out the appropriate steps and, as far as possible, collect these debts or, at least, part of them.
The main problem is usually locate the debtor. Their bank or address information may have been changed or may not have been updated, making it more difficult to contact them. Likewise, it is also very common that they do not answer calls, as they have cancelled their usual telephone number or have left it unused. This makes communication even more difficult for reach an amicable agreement, before making a legal claim.
All debts have a specific period of time until they are considered time-barred. Therefore, as long as that date has not yet arrived, the age of the debt will not matterso we would be able to collect in any case.
Generally, the deadlines for collecting debts are established in accordance with state law and usually begin to run from the moment the debtor defaults on the payment due.
In the event that the debtor does not show signs of intent to pay the debt and is not expected to pay the debt, may be claimed through the courts. There are different methods to collect a debt judicially:
The factoring is one of the most commonly used formulas when it comes to seeking financing for companies.

Likewise, we can currently turn to technology to avoid non-payments in SMEs and companies of any size. One of the most widely used technologies is Artificial Intelligence, which makes it possible to analyze in detail, before doing business, whether the other party will generate a non-payment problem. In this sense, it is a matter of anticipating possible liquidity problems, instead of responding to them with alternative financing formulas.
The credit scoring is a system that is used to rate credits and thus automate the decision making process when it comes to facing a risk of non-payment.
