on the occasion of/in the event of a sagging/decline

My comment:

Dans Dictionnaire des Affaires Larousse, defaillance= sagging, dans le sens financier. Dans Grand Dictionnaire Harper Collins, Francais/Anglais, survenir=to take place, occur. Bonne Chance!

'sagging' usually refers to physical decline; 'sagging jawline' etc, although it can also be used to refer to decline in (eg a politician's) support, as in 'Tony Blair's sagging popularity' (and jawline, come to think of it)

Apparently, it can be used in a financial sense, also. See my notes about Larousse's entry.

Besides, it is often referred to as a "depressed" or "sagging market" in the United States, so I suppose it depends who your audience is, Rebecca.

I you google it, you'll find many references to "sagging markets," including international markets.

OK, OK Barbara I believe you! Call me an ignoramus, I didn't know 'sag' was used in this sense. But I don't think you can say 'in the event of a sagging', you would have to say 'in the event of a sag in the market'. But the context here is not markets in general, it is a specific reference to someone not meeting obligations, so I think 'default' is the right term.

From what I've seen of you on this website, I wouldn't consider you an ignoramus at all, Karen.! But according to Rebecca's entry, I got the impression this is about foreign exchange markets, in general. Hence my translation of "sagging" or "declining" markets. Best Regards.
