Need advice on closing a company, liquidation or business debt?
Whether you’re looking to close a company, clear the decks and start again. Close a business that’s run its course or rescue a business with a viable future, seeking advice early will maximise your options and provide much-needed peace of mind.
For company directors, there are a number of formal, legal ways to help you achieve the outcome you desire. Which option suits you will depend on your circumstances and what you are looking to achieve.
Let’s take a quick look at the options…
Pre-Pack Administration – Close down and restart a company. This allows the Directors to purchase the goodwill and assets of the company to restart.
Creditors Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) – Allows you to ring-fence a struggling business whilst a solution is found. Repay creditors out of future profit.
Creditors Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) – The company is insolvent, you want to close the door and walk away. Creditors dealt with, leases cancelled, no loose ends.
Members Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) – Solvent Liquidation. In other words, the company has cash but has served its useful purpose and needs to close. A distribution of share value to its directors in the most tax efficient way.
