What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Research by CreditorWatch indicates that Australian businesses are taking longer to receive payments than at any point in the last year. Trade payment defaults climbed 26% over the past 12 months, and payment delays in the retail sector doubled over the same period. One in ten invoices across all industries over the last three months is now more than 60 days overdue.
