A recent analysis from the Institute for Economic and Enterprise Research (IEER) of the Hungarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (HCCI) examined the experiences of late payment and debt queues of domestic enterprises. The results are based on data from the IEER January 2016 Quarterly Business Climate Survey during which we asked 400 domestic enterprises about the topic. The results show that 81% of businesses had at least one business partner that paid late in 2015, while 45% of respondents themselves owed to their suppliers at least once in the period under review. The highest proportion of late payments was among small businesses and the construction sector. From the combined results of the last few years, though, it appears that the situation of companies in terms of late payments has improved: the number of business partners paying late has declined on average as well as the amounts outstanding. The proportion of companies that could not pay their suppliers on time at least once because of a late payment by their customers is also in decline, as well as, compared to previous years, the proportion of respondents who feel that the debt queue problem is worsening.
