The Installment Payment Agreement serves as a crucial document for managing debt repayment in a structured and legally compliant manner under Swiss law. This agreement is typically used when a debtor needs to repay a substantial sum over time, whether in a business-to-business context or with individual consumers. It becomes particularly relevant in situations involving large purchases, debt restructuring, or settlement arrangements. The document ensures compliance with Swiss financial regulations, including the Code of Obligations and, where applicable, consumer credit laws. It provides legal certainty by clearly defining payment terms, consequences of default, and enforcement mechanisms, while protecting both creditor and debtor interests through well-defined rights and obligations.
