Between strains on supply chains, high inflation and the energy crisis, fears were high that relations between customers and suppliers would deteriorate last year. It has not happened. Late payments have even been shortened, reduced from 12.4 days on average in 2021 to 11.7 days at the end of 2022, according to the report of the Observatory of payment terms published on Tuesday.

The proportion of “great delays” – i.e. more than 30 days – has returned to its level before the health crisis, at 6%, specifies the document which is based on data from the Altares cabinet.
