French term

sains á tort

French to English Bus/Financial Finance (general)
I'm translating a guide on how to select sampling methods for internal audits (my head hurts), and the expression "sain á tort" is used frequently, as is "dossiers sains" etc. Here is some context:

Exemple : on souhaite évaluer le montant cumulé des encours des clients classés sains à tort => l’attribut sondé est « classé sain à tort », et le facteur de pondération utilisé sera l’encours de chaque client.

I have found the expressions "healthy credit and bad credit", but I'm not sure if this applies to files or clients too. I would appreciate any input. Thanks!

découpage: les encours classés [à tort] (comme étant) sains

agree with Paul, can you submit an answer?
Laura Miller (asker) Aug 7, 2006:
That would make sense since they are talking about internal audits, and looking for things that are out of place. Thanks!

Could it be that the clients are wrongly (à tort) classified as creditworthy? We also refer to a "clean credit record" in English, if that helps any.
