Payment Terms

Standard payment terms

Tangent Trading Limited ('Tangent') deals on third party suppliers’ terms rather than its own and therefore does not have standard payment terms, nor does it require that particular sets of payment terms are included in third party supplier contracts depending on the supplier’s size. Tangent does however generally engage with third party suppliers on the following terms: (a) a payment period of 30 days of receipt of the relevant invoice; (b) payment of interest at the rate specified by the supplier in the relevant supplier agreement; and (c) submission to settlement discussions/the English courts (as provided for under the relevant supplier agreement) to determine any dispute if such cannot be resolved amicably between Tangent's Accounts Payables and Legal departments and the relevant supplier.

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

Disputes are resolved per the process set out in the relevant supplier agreement involving Tangent's Accounts Payables and Legal departments and the relevant supplier. Any dispute would be governed by the governing law/jurisdiction clause in the relevant supplier agreement which is generally English law/English courts.
