About the Seminar

Provisional liquidators, liquidators, receivers and managers and the like have the power to seize control of the assets of a company and, in certain circumstances, realise such assets for the benefit of the creditors. There are also circumstances where the creditors of a company will wish to protect the assets of a company, whether insolvent or otherwise, notwithstanding that the company is not in any form of administration.

The speakers will look at two ways in which creditors are able to identify, protect and realise assets, namely Norwich Pharmacal orders and mareva injunctions. By way of case studies, the speakers will draw upon their recent experience in dealing with such mechanisms and show how they can be used to the advantage of not only the applicants but insolvency practitioners who take control of companies which may be subject to either a Norwich Pharmacal order or mareva injunction."
