Vastasmäärudes

Vastasmäärudes is a Finnish term that translates to "counter-offer" or "counter-bid" in English. It refers to a proposal made in response to an initial offer, where the recipient of the original offer rejects it and instead presents a new set of terms or conditions. This is a common practice in negotiations, particularly in business transactions, real estate, and employment.

A vastasmäärudes typically aims to achieve a more favorable outcome for the party making it. It can involve changes to the price, quantity, delivery schedule, payment terms, or any other aspect of the original proposal. The purpose is to find common ground and reach a mutually acceptable agreement.

The process of making a vastasmäärudes is a dynamic part of negotiation. It signifies that the initial offer was not fully accepted, and the negotiation will continue. The acceptance or rejection of the counter-offer, or the presentation of further counter-offers, determines the progression of the negotiation. It is a fundamental tool for parties to express their needs and expectations and to strive for a satisfactory resolution.
