The Interim Settlement Agreement is a crucial document used in Hong Kong's commercial and legal landscape when parties need to establish temporary arrangements while working toward a final resolution of their dispute. It serves as a bridge between the initial dispute and final settlement, providing immediate structure and certainty while allowing flexibility for long-term solutions. This document type is particularly valuable in complex commercial disputes where immediate partial resolution is needed, or where certain aspects of a dispute can be settled while others require further negotiation. The agreement must comply with Hong Kong's common law requirements and typically includes provisions for payment terms, temporary obligations, and the relationship with any final settlement. It's commonly used in commercial disputes, financial settlements, and corporate restructuring situations where temporary arrangements need to be formalized with legal certainty.
