The Legal Framework for Business Debt Recovery in Kenya
The Kenyan legal landscape offers various avenues for businesses to recover outstanding debts. The Contracts Act, 2012, forms the bedrock of most commercial agreements, outlining the rights and obligations of parties. For secured creditors, the Land Registration Act, 2012, and the Chattels Transfer Act provide mechanisms for enforcing security interests. In cases of insolvency, the Insolvency Act, 2015, governs the procedures for winding up companies and recovering assets for the benefit of creditors. The Companies Act, 2015, also plays a role in corporate governance and the responsibilities of directors concerning debt. Furthermore, the Civil Procedure Act and the Evidence Act prescribe the rules for bringing legal proceedings, ensuring a fair and transparent judicial process. Specialized tribunals, such as those under the Co-operative Societies Act for SACCO debts, also exist. Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd possesses a deep understanding of this intricate legal web, enabling us to navigate it effectively for your business’s recovery needs.
