About the Webinar

When does a counterparty's conduct amount to a clear refusal to perform, and when is it merely an attempt to renegotiate?

In international trade, this distinction is critical. A premature termination may expose you to substantial liability instead of protecting your position.

In this seminar, we will analyse how English law approaches anticipatory breach, using real-life styled case studies involving commodity contracts and CIF delivery structures.

  • What constitutes anticipatory breach under English law
  • The threshold of a "clear and unequivocal refusal" to perform
  • Why commercial proposals and renegotiation do NOT equal repudiation
  • When termination becomes premature and wrongful
  • How tribunals assess evidence vs assumptions
  • Practical guidance for traders, brokers, and in-house counsel
