Perintäketju

Perintäketju refers to a sequence or chain of events that is triggered by a claim or demand for payment in the context of debt recovery. The concept is often associated with commercial and civil law, particularly in the Scandinavian countries such as Finland, Sweden, and Norway.

In a perintäketju, a creditor may use various means to locate and contact the debtor, including sending reminders, making phone calls, and issuing formal demands for payment. As the debtor fails to respond or make payments, the creditor may escalate the matter by involving a debt collector or taking the case to court.

The perintäketju model operates on a principle of gradual escalation, where the creditor increases the pressure on the debtor to pay by using increasingly formal or confrontational methods. However, the exact format and sequence of the perintäketju may vary depending on the jurisdiction and the specific circumstances of the case.
