This supplier has declined to provide monthly trading figures. Payment is being met within the terms of the account. The account has been held for 25 years and is an excellent account.

 

This account varies between $15,000-$40,000 per month. Payment is being met before the end of the month. The account has been held prior to 2001 and there are no problems.

 

This is a large account, however actual trading figures were not provided. Payment is being met within terms. The subject has traded with this supplier for some time and is a very good and no problem account.

 

 

FINANCE

 

The subject has not lodged financial accounts with the New Zealand Companies Office.

The PPSA is also used by suppliers to register a charge over goods which have been supplied to the subject in respect of which the supplier terms of trade may previously have contained a “reservation of title” clause.
