Bus/Financial - Accounting | | Italian term or phrase: conoscere le possibilità di recupero del credito vantato dalle società XXX e X | Hello. this appears in a letter regarding invoice payment after bankruptcy. However, is it correct to say:
"Have a clear view regarding debt collection entitled to XXX and XXX..."
or something similar.
Thanks |
| | | to know the probability of the amounts due to ... being paid | Explanation:
"to know the probability of the amounts due to the companies xxx and x being paid"
"to know the probability of the debts owed to xxx and x being collected/recovered"
There are other perfectly acceptable ways of translating this (could use "loan" if the amount owed is a loan).
As for "conoscere", need to know the rest of the sentence for alternatives, but "know" is perfectly acceptable English in an accounting context.
