créances liquides liquid receivables Explanation: 'Créance liquide' can indeed be "liquidated claim" or "liquid claim" in other contexts, but I think "liquid receivables" is better in this context. "Créances" are usually "accounts receivable" and liquide is of course liquid. "Créance" and "exigible" both mean receivable in French so the English would be redundant. It would be something ilke 'receivable and due' so you need to adjust the wording. Receivables are, of course, claims, its just a question of the customary wording in business use. |
