An insolvency practitioner is a licensed professional authorised to act on behalf of insolvent companies or individuals in Surrey.
They handle formal processes like Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL), administration, Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVA), and receivership in Surrey.
You need to appoint an IP when your company is insolvent and can no longer pay its debts as they fall due, or when its liabilities exceed its assets in Surrey.
Early appointment helps prevent wrongful trading and allows you to explore available solutions in Surrey.
The process typically begins with a free consultation. If liquidation or restructuring is required, you’ll formally engage the IP by signing a letter of engagement in Surrey.
In a CVL, shareholders pass in Surrey a resolution to appoint the IP, who is then confirmed by creditors.
In liquidation, the IP manages the entire process in Surrey, from valuing and selling assets to distributing funds to creditors and closing the company.
They also investigate director conduct in Surrey and ensure compliance with UK insolvency law.
In voluntary procedures in Surrey, such as a CVL or MVL, directors and shareholders can choose their own IP.
However, in compulsory liquidation, the court appoints the Official Receiver, and creditors must approve any replacement IP in Surrey.
All IPs in the UK must be licensed by a recognised professional body in Surrey such as ICAEW or IPA.
They must also pass the Joint Insolvency Examination Board (JIEB) exams and maintain ongoing professional standards in Surrey.
