1.0.4. Trading administrations- Loss of confidence; loss of opportunity

10:35 – 11:15

Trading administrations- loss of confidence; loss of opportunity?

This session will be chaired by Will Gunston.

The default position for a company being placing into administration has increasingly been to immediately dispose of the business and assets via a pre-packaged sale.

This session will highlight instances where, for various legal and commercial reasons, trading administrations will likely be prohibitive, but it will also highlight examples where the outcome for most stakeholders, including insolvency practitioner firms, could be significantly better as compared to pre-packaged transactions.  There will be practical guidance to remind insolvency practitioners of factors to consider when balancing the options of a trading administration as against a pre-packaged administration.
