The main result: The implication \((\sum \| A_ i\|\) converges \(\Rightarrow \prod (U_ i+A_ i)\) converges) is true if and only if \(\forall r\prod^{\infty}_{i=r}(U_ i+A_ i)\) converges. Here \(A_ i\), \(U_ i\) are \(n\times n\) complex matrices, \(\| U_ i\| =1\). An application to stochastic matrices is given.
